I'm passionate about
learning and sharing knowledge, empowering young people, and using technology and education to create real change in communities. I love exploring new ideas, solving problems, and helping others discover their potential; especially students who don’t always have access to resources or guidance. I’m driven by the belief that even small actions, when shared, can inspire big impact.
An idea worth spreading
I believe that curiosity, learning, and giving back can change lives and no one is too young to start. From exploring digital skills at 11 to teaching thousands of students and creating platforms like VTS, I’ve learned that knowledge becomes powerful only when shared. My idea is simple: when young people are given the tools, guidance, and opportunity to explore their potential, they can create meaningful impact in their communities and beyond.

The TED story
I first heard about TED when I was exploring ideas online as a curious 12-year-old, creating small educational videos and tutorials. I was inspired by the way TED speakers could share ideas that truly changed how people think.
Things you might not know
breaking complex ideas into simple, practical lessons. Whether it’s teaching IT skills, guiding students, or helping someone start a project, I enjoy making things understandable and inspiring others to try, even if they’ve never done it before.
