This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Shanti takes you on a journey of the wisdom that lived under one single roof, one that inspired, transformed, and molded her into who she is today. She encourages others to intentionally pass along the wisdom and culture of their own family.
Shanti Gangadharan was born in Denver, Colorado and received her Bachelors of Science in Electrical Engineering from Purdue University. Her time is split between being a mom, wife, to her family and business development manager for ClientSolv Technologies. Shanti’s story begins with her father’s journey to the United States in hope of creating a better life for his family, the beginning of every immigrant’s story. However, when her father’s journey took a sad turn and he lost his ability to seek and provide that better life, her grandparents and her mother were given the responsibility to continue the dream.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
