TEDx Organizers

Healing through community. Creative collaboration.

I enjoy organizing events, living the team, and helping to create something of value for my city, which is why I chose to join TEDxVicenza. I really like sports: I played rugby for 15 years, I follow soccer and basketball but in general I love going to see live sports. I like music and discovering new places. I love going out to eat and organizing dinners with friends because I also like to cook.

Where to start - so many things: * Supporting people to find and use their voice * Coaching children to learn to sail * Beekeeping * Volunteering * Sailing * Scuba diving * Underwater videography * Storytelling * Capturing out verbal history *.....

Development and innovation

I am passionate about inquiry based teaching, ideas, creativity, art, design, writing, bilingualism, environmental sustainability and the intersection of the arts and humanities with science. I love organizing creative opportunities and systems that flatten hierarchies and provide networks for the sharing of ideas locally and globally. I also am passionate about international exchange. In 2011 I developed a sustainability curriculum as part of a fellowship to visit Rwanda to study sustainability initiatives there. I continue to be energized by partnerships that help us see opportunities for systemic change. I am passionate about the critical importance of student voices and empowering student self expression for mental wellness, self advocacy, artistic innovation, community resilience and social justice. I am also passionate about the wilderness and the wonder and joy I find surfing, skiing, and hiking with my friends and family.
