At TEDxYouthDay events around the world, young people will be sharing live their news, reflections, quotes and impressions of this three-day event via Twitter, Facebook, and other online media platforms.  These official TEDxYouthDay reporters — some of whom will be online and at viewing parties – will help to augment the impact of this global event in their community, and around the world.

TEDxYouth@TampaBay 2011 is delighted to introduce the two Official TEDxYouth Day reporters covering our event in Seminole.

Will, at age 9, is a veteran TEDster who can rattle off favorite TED Talks   with ease.  He plays the violin in a youth orchestra, and also plays the piano.  He enjoys making stop-motion animation videos, building with LEGOs and is currently learning to speak Mandarin.

You can follow him the day of the event via Twitter: @TheWelshGreen

Meghan Kelley is 17, and helped out at TEDxYouth@TampaBay 2010 last year.  Her interests are deep and far reaching, ranging, including psychology, music, horror movies, guitar playing, photography, and art.

We’re grateful to these two great Youth Reporters for sharing their time, insights and voice with us at TEDxYouth@TampaBay 2011!
