Speaking Life: Chiccy Baritone at TEDxGreenville 2014

An artist with a powerful, expressive presence "speaks life" through her poetry. It's her goal to motivate and encourage people through the multiple facets of life, good or bad. An engineer, Chiccy Baritone's spoken word performance is about navigating the blurry lines between her profession (engineering) and her passion (poetry). She nobly lays down smooth and winding phrasing to leave the audience with a blast of energy, a verbal breeze in our hair. Her performance is strong and full of kick.

This performance was part of TEDxGreenville UNZIPPED, held April 11, 2014, at the Kroc Center in Greenville, South Carolina. For more information about Chiccy and her co-presenters, please visit .

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)
