OUTREACH.
 

Running global Innovation & Problem-Solving workshops, seminars, and sessions for students K-12 across the world. I have reached students across over 20 countries in the past year through my podcast, as well as through partnerships with venture capital funds, schools in remote areas, and museums. The workshops highlight my process for youth to begin solving problems in their local community. I've reached youth through 1517 Fund's office hours, mentoring around 300 youth at their annual conference in Toronto for AI and gene editing. These sessions introduce my streamlined 4-step process to empower youth to tackle challenges within their communities, while also exposing them to cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence and gene editing as tools for crafting innovative solutions. My ongoing involvement with 1517 Fund, backed by Peter Thiel, reflects my commitment to giving back and supporting the next generation of impact-makers.

1517 Fund's annual summit 2024 - Toronto

I ran 3 sessions with youth in Toronto who are grantees/incoming grantees for 1517 Fund. They gathered 300 youth to learn from my framework of solving problems in gene editing and AI. Through my hackathon experience and an open brainstorming session, the youth I mentored came up with brilliant ideas and worked on early prototypes. It was an honour to help guide my generation as our future leaders and innovators.
