.170 Haley Jensen

Haley has an incredibly disarming vibe to her, always making me feel more relaxed and at ease whenever she’s around. We met through the TEDx team in college and she immediately brought such a wonderful perspective and energy to the team. I’m only half joking when I say that I wish I could be half as cool as she is. She’s just a lovely, kind, and deeply compassionate friend and I’m grateful that we crossed paths for that year or so in DC.

On the team, Haley’s help and thoughtful ideas were genuinely needed and appreciated. She had such a unique way of encouraging those around her to speak their minds and voice good and powerful thoughts and ideas. Maybe I’m biased since we’re both from California, but Haley was truly just a fabulous person to spend time with and to listen to. The team was better off because she was a part of it.

Haley, thank you so much for being such a sweet and caring human being. Thank you for your input and for being a crucial member of that TEDx family. Thank you for being so kind and intelligent and for your incredible sense of style! Thank you, Haley, for being you.
