DeShaun is involved with many activities at Cane Ridge High School, serving as president of the Black Achievers Club Model of the YMCA and secretary of the Poetry Organization. In 2013, he spent the summer as a Bank of America Student Leader Intern, working at a local Nashville non-profit organization called the Oasis Center.


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)
