The round red carpet waits

LICENSEE & CURATOR

As the founder of TED^xSurrey in 2018, I needed to build a strong team for the many important responsibilities. I chose to be the Curator because it allows me to have the wonderfully creative experience of working with a team to find the best speakers, with the best ideas, each year. We start the process with a blank slate and we finish each year with an amazing team of speakers.

It’s a joy to work with an exceptional team of bright, capable, and insightful people dedicated to a selection process that is fair and equitable at every stage.

CURATION TEAM COORDINATOR

In the summer of 2018, I received a phone call from Curator Alan Warburton asking if I would like to join the Curation Team for what would eventually become TED^xSurrey. Several years later, I have loved every minute of my time on the team. It allows me to interact with individuals who are wildly passionate about their ideas; their passion and enthusiasm are infectious. I feel a sense of purpose and accomplishment in answering the speaker’s questions and helping the rest of the team sift through the numerous applications we receive each year.

CURATION TEAM

As a curious adventurer, I have a passion for people and ideas which has been a guiding light in my life. I was fortunate to be a TED^xSurrey speaker in 2019. This experience inspired me to be of greater service and I was invited to join the Curation Team in 2022. I am grateful for the creative and versatile team that continues to uplift and is a beacon of light that shines in all directions. I love working with the Curation Team as we collaborate, uplift, and encourage ideas that enrich the community and global family at large.

CURATION TEAM

I’m a ‘no-nonsense’ dynamo born to catapult heart-centred entrepreneurs and thought leaders to build impactful brands, businesses, and lives. My engagement with TED^x deepened after delivering two TED^x Talks, now viewed over 3.9 million times. Drawn by the vibrant community of TED^xSurrey and the potential to create massive positive change, I joined the Curation Team four years ago. Being part of this family means nurturing bright minds and always seeking transformative ideas worth sharing. It’s here, among amazing talents, that I find joy in helping to bring groundbreaking insights to the stage and beyond.

CURATION TEAM

As a former TED^x speaker, I’ve experienced the profound ‘Human’ evolution that unfolds from sharing ideas on the big red circle. While TED^x aspires to influence the world, its hidden power lies in the internal transformation it sparks in speakers. As a member of the curation team, I have the fortune of helping to orchestrate an amazing experience for our audience by assembling a diverse cast of speakers with impactful messages. Watching others take the stage and witnessing their transformative journeys is even more impactful and fulfilling than when I delivered my talk in 2023: How to Escape Hero Culture.
