I enjoy sharing with others the idea of what it means to be 'good'. I believe that as an educator, after ensuring the health and wellbeing of people in our community, that our next role is to help young people (and ourselves) become good, caring people.

I have been a TED-Ed Student Talks supervisor for 8 years and love to learn what students are deeply passionate about. Supporting them as they craft their ideas into TED-style Talks is a pure joy.
