He is very excited to help produce a TEDx conference at Manchester High School, to spread the idea that ideas shape ourselves and the world and that ideas that help the world become more peaceful and free are worth spreading.
He is currently obsessed with the question, "What is more important in a person's life and in a society's life, choices or circumstances?"

Truth Academy students are diverse in their backgrounds and their interests. A skeptical outlook and an open mind is what they have in common. Students love to discuss current events, philosophical questions, or just about anything. They are excited to help produce the TEDx conference!
