The Art of Expression: Nate Howard at TEDx SDSU

Nate Howard: Nate Howard graduated from USC's Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism in May 2013, where he studied communication with an emphasis in entertainment. During his time in college, Nate created Movement BE, a multimedia platform amplifying the voices of the millennial generation. He launched his first project "BE the Music," a college television show focusing on music inspiration, interviewing top artists such as J Cole, Nicki Minaj and Ice Cube. Upon graduation, Nate went back to his high school in San Diego and created "BE the Voice," to inspire youth to turn their personal narratives into solutions for change. Along with directing Movement BE, Nate is the national event manager for Campus DJ, a collegiate DJ competition where he travels the country to find the best college DJs. He also records music, and is a songwriter working with Atlantic Records.

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)
