I'm passionate about
I am passionate about public health, scientific research, innovation, and the power of storytelling to inspire positive change.
I enjoy exploring ideas that challenge conventional thinking, understanding complex problems, and finding practical ways to improve people's lives. I am particularly interested in health advocacy, research-driven solutions, youth development, and creating platforms where people can share experiences and perspectives that might otherwise go unheard.
I am also passionate about leadership, creative production, and building collaborative communities. Through my work with TEDxJimeta, I value the opportunity to bring people, ideas, and experiences together in ways that spark curiosity and encourage action.
An idea worth spreading
The most powerful ideas are those that change how we see the world and inspire us to make it better.
I believe that knowledge should not remain confined to classrooms, research papers, or professional circles. It should be translated into practical solutions that improve lives, strengthen communities, and create opportunities for others.
Whether in public health, education, technology, or leadership, we need to bridge the gap between what we know and what we do. By encouraging curiosity, sharing knowledge, and creating spaces for meaningful conversations, we can challenge assumptions and develop solutions to problems that matter.
An idea becomes truly transformative when it moves beyond inspiration and leads to action.
Areas of expertise

The TED story
My journey has been shaped by curiosity, a desire to understand the world, and a commitment to making a meaningful difference in people's lives. With academic backgrounds in Public Health and Human Anatomy, I have developed a strong interest in understanding human challenges, exploring evidence-based solutions, and translating knowledge into action.
Beyond academia, my experiences in operations management, community engagement, and creative production have taught me that meaningful change rarely happens in isolation. It takes collaboration, open-mindedness, and the courage to explore ideas beyond conventional boundaries.
My work with TEDxJimeta, where I serve as Head of Production, reflects my belief in the power of ideas and storytelling. I see TEDx as more than a platform for talks; it is an opportunity to create experiences that challenge perspectives, connect people, and inspire action.
I continue to explore the intersections of science, innovation, communication, and human development. My goal is to keep learning, contribute to conversations that matter, and help create spaces where ideas can grow into solutions that improve lives.
Things you might not know
People may know me for my work in public health or event production, but I also have a knack for bringing people, ideas, and moving parts together to make things happen.
I'm good at coordinating complex projects, solving problems under pressure, paying attention to details, and turning broad ideas into practical plans. I enjoy working behind the scenes, where planning, teamwork, and creativity come together to create experiences that feel seamless to everyone else.
I'm also naturally curious. I enjoy researching unfamiliar topics, connecting ideas across different fields, and finding ways to communicate complex information in a way that people can understand and appreciate.
