I am the Legal Coordinator for the TEDx team who works to ensure that the event is occurring in accordance with the TEDx guidelines. I believe that TEDx events inspire students and others through motivational speeches. In addition to being the legal coordinator, I have also organized a campaign to promote the goals of IHL with her team. I have also won Regional chess tournaments during my time in India.
