I attended the very first TEDxUCLA today! I’m really glad I went, since there were some fantastic presentations and the vibe there was just awesome. Here are some pictures to walk you through so you can feel like you were there too. 🙂

Check out their site and their Facebook page if you’re interested and maybe I’ll see you there next year!
