TED Community

changing lives and the world through values driven initiatives

Sports, Education, Youth Development, Relationship Building

Building an unprecedented alliance between straight, gay, bi and trans people to eliminate the laws and cultural norms that make it impossible for so many of us to live openly and love who we choose.

The moment when a group moves from debate to shared conviction — when an idea becomes something people are ready to build together. I am also fascinated in how groups make difficult choices when there is no obvious answer, and in tipping points — the moments when a situation suddenly shifts and new possibilities emerge. Outside my work, I enjoy reading across disciplines — strategy, psychology, philosophy and systems thinking — and long walks and meals with friends and colleagues to reflect (and digest).

Bringing people together to share experiences.

Social justice, Democracy, Politics, Public Policy, Technology, Quantum Mechanics, Theory of Relativity, Astrophysics, Behavioral Psychology, Behavioural Economics, Evolution, Science, Spirituality, Human Rights, Disability Rights, Orthotics ( I use one )

I am passionate about enjoying time with my Family and Friends, nature, meditation, and learning. Furthermore, I am committed to the promotion of Human Rights and, specifically, Children’s Rights, and very motivated in the search for ways that can improve the life of children in risk of exclusion.

Health and human development.

Connecting & encouraging people, reading, food, travel, and the power of education
