More About Me

I'm passionate about

Responsible Citizenship, Environmental Stewardship, Technology and engaging the youth of North America.

An idea worth spreading

Responsible citizenship requires the three 21st century waves of innovation to work simultaneously to engage youth, community, industry and our leaders. The idea of combining the advantages of technology, benefits of environmental stewardship and the simplicity of community engagment is a solution to the future. The right combination of these three will prevent and counter the potentially harmful 21st century tsunami quickly approaching.

My TED Story

I was introduced to TED in 2000 and have been a avid follower since then. I have introduced TED Talks into my high school and middle school classrooms and shared them with thousands of other community members through the Southern Alberta Community of Environmental Educators and the Southern Alberta Youth for Environmental Education. I am the Curator for TEDxLethbridge (2012), TEDxYouth@Lethbridge (2012), Co-curator for TEDxULeth (2012) and past Curator for TEDx Banff (2010). I have attended four other TEDx events in my area and had the pleasure of being part of TEDActive 2010 in Palm Springs.
