The TED story
I was drawn to TEDXGainesville because I genuinely admired what the team was building. The intention, the impact, and the way the work centered people resonated with me, and I knew I wanted to be a part of it. I was eager to contribute my skills, my energy, and my perspective in service of something meaningful.
