Alejandro Muñoz Martín

High School Student
From a very early point in my life, I had always found public speaking fascinating, as well as seeing it as a method to inspire others and share information or life experiences. The times I would most get this urge to become a public speaker would be in school when we would be shown Ted talks; of which were all informative and spectacularly easy to implement in daily life. Ever since those moments I've crossed into public speaking little by little, giving lectures in class and even going so far as to participate in public speaking events. I personally find myself with confidence in what I have to say and can proudly affirm that it brings a certain joy to my heart seeing others inspired from my words and ideas.

Ana Sofía Castillo García

High School Student
I'm Ana Sofía, I'm a high school student passionate about helping others and making awareness about the topics we face in real life. I’ve always had this interest in speaking in public about something that I like, that intrigues me, and I love to share the little I know with others.

Eduardo Díaz Valencia

High School Student
I consider myself a very empathetic and ambitious person. I’m not perfect at what I do, but one thing I’m undoubtedly good at, is speaking about any topic in front of a group of people. It may sound strange, but I enjoy it, I love sharing my opinions with others, exchanging ideas, and presenting what I know and think, and what better platform to do that, than TED! I love reading, especially about history. I believe that knowing the past could help us build a better future, and that’s why I feel the need to talk about modern slavery. I see TED as a great opportunity to share my vision on the subject and my research, to connect with people who think like me, and to make an impact on others. I want to leave a mark.

Enrique Sánchez Monterrubio

High School Student
Hi, my name is Enrique Sanchez Monterrubio, and I’m currently a high school student with a wide range of interests, from technology and robotics to participating in Model United Nations. However, there’s one question that stands out to me more than any other: How does life work in all its domains? I am deeply curious about everything from biology and philosophy to psychology, consciousness, theology, and ethics. I believe that understanding the interconnectedness of all these fields can lead to profound insights. As someone who has always been fascinated by the power of ideas, I am convinced that sharing knowledge has the potential to bring about meaningful change for everyone. Looking around, I see that one of the greatest crises in today’s society is the lack of self-expression. Why is this important? Having a voice is arguably the most fundamental thing a person can possess, second only to life itself.

Isabella Oriza Martínez

High School Student
My passion for the topic of the TED Talk didn't come from a textbook, but from seeing and experiencing things myself. I've seen how a walk in the woods can calm even the most restless mind, how touching the earth can spark a hidden creativity, and how just looking at a landscape can refresh our sense of what we're here for. My goal isn't just to share information, but to get people to see things differently. I want each of us to realize how much power nature has to change us, and to actively look for that connection in our daily lives. Because, when we understand how nature affects us, we can learn to live a more fulfilling, balanced, and harmonious life.

Roberto García Pérez

High School Student
I'm Roberto García Pérez, I'm a high school student on Mathematical physical and this choice was influenced by a TED speaker, Roger Antonsen, that TED talk really inspired me to set path for my life, I like public-speaking and with this opportunity I think I will be able to inspire people find their life-oath.

Sara Elisa García Bravo

High School Student
I’m a student now, but I aspire to have a job that gives me a major voice one day, to talk about issues that affect people and help them understand some kind of social situations. I’d love to be a TEDx Speaker because I have an opinion based on my experiences, I've had problems as well once, and I’m willing to share my experiences to help people feel understood if they have been or are going through something similar

Valeria Nicole Vargas Aguirre

High School Student
My name is Nicole Vargas, and I’ve always been a creative and curious girl. I love art, fashion, and everything about self-expression. Since I was young, I wanted to learn about art, books, and the whole world. Now I'm really excited to share my ideas with the youth and help them to love themselves and explore within their brains and bodies.
