I became involved with TED so that educational publishing could be influenced by the many amazing people TED attracts. We're sponsoring this year so that we can form bonds with innovators that can truly help transform how students are taught and learn in the 21st century.

I graduated with a degree in Creative Writing and am pretty good at putting together short stories. I just need to find time to do more of it.
