I was first introduced to TED five years ago and thought the concept was marvelous and ever since that time, I have wanted to attend. I love the idea of not just meeting fun and interesting people, but individuals who want to make a difference in the world. This is very important to me.

I see TED as a way to come together with others to have fun, play and brainstorm about making our society better.
