My first interaction with TED was rather quite late, around 2011. Earlier even If I had seen the videos I didn't notice the importance of those talks and thought them as a good resource for my projects. However, in 2011 being part of TED x UCP I realized what we are missing out and since then I'm almost a regular at TED Youtube channel to listen to the most inspiring stories. While learning through TED, I feel that the people around me should also understand the importance and benefits of TED and I am now aiming to conduct a TED event at my workplace for all the students and the people who need to listen to the inspirations around us.

People find me intimidating, what they don't know about me is the understanding and advising part I have. I am always ready to learn so the knowledge I currently possess isn't the end of anything.
