Anvitha Barun
Anvitha Barun is a high school student, speaker, and entrepreneur passionate about understanding human behavior and creating meaningful social impact. Through research, storytelling, and community projects, she explores how psychology shapes the choices we make and how small individual actions can lead to lasting change. In her TED talk, she examines what the story of the Titanic reveals about human nature and why choosing to act, rather than look away, matters more than ever.
Nandini Swain
Nandini Swain is a high school student who is fascinated by the questions that shape the way we think, grow, and connect with others. Her experiences in science, healthcare, and public speaking have taught her that the most meaningful moments in life often begin with uncertainty. She hopes her ideas encourage others to embrace curiosity, challenge the need for certainty, and leave with a new perspective on the questions they ask themselves every day.
Nia Tilokani
Nia Tilokani is a high school student passionate about STEM and Healthcare. Outside of school she spends her time playing sports or volunteering at a local clinic. She hopes to go into medicine and learn more about the field.
