Richelle Gribble was invited to present her topic, “What is our Role Within a Networked Society?” at the TEDxTrousdale event. Her presentation describes the ways that connection mobilizes change within communities through the ripple effect and our inherent desire to be a part of something larger than ourselves.

Gribble grew up in Idyllwild, attended Idyllwild School, Idyllwild Arts Academy as a visual artist and just graduated from the University of Southern California with a bachelor’s degree in fine arts.
