The TED story
I make watching and listening to TedTalks a ritual on a weekly basis and have attended TedX in Vail. CO for the last two years. I enjoy meeting people and learning about all sorts of topics. I believe that the more I can put myself in places like Ted events, the more well-rounded I become as a citizen of the world and as an Aunt, girl-friend, friend, CEO, cousin (to many) and sister.
