Meet Our 2017 Speakers
Paulina Lis learned the value of conservation early in life. Growing up in 1980s Poland under the Soviet Union, Paulina’s family relied on a community network of locally grown food, upcycled products and basic services.
After traveling, living and working in England, Scotland, Spain and India, Paulina discovered that effective systems must consider social equity, the environment and economic growth.
As Executive Director of the San Diego Green Building Council, Paulina helps build support for environmental initiatives. Notable projects include sustainability efforts in Balboa Park, San Diego Food Bank, North Park Eco District Initiative, and the Net Zero Water Conservation.
Check out our expanding list of Speakers and Performers, growing week by week.

What Attendees Say About Us
It was an amazing and inspiration day. The entertainment components especially meant a great day to me. I’ve been telling everyone that they need to invest in themselves and go next year.
I think the exploration and presentment of new and innovative ideas fosters discussion, opens perspective, and creates an opportunity for meaningful dialog. Well structured, well presented, and thoroughly entertaining, I would confidently encourage friends and colleagues to attend.
Eye opening, Mind refreshing, opportunity driven for positive thinking and meaningful action for Change in the World, this being on a personal level and a translation in a context of wider impact.
TEDxSanDiego is a catalyst for spreading ideas that change our world
