Who's Showing Up? | Christopher Swims | TEDxSIUC

Christopher Swims asks TEDxSIUC "Who's Showing up?" Christopher inspires those around him to look around and appreciate the people showing up in their lives. Hi, I’m Christopher E. Swims: a husband, father, Pastor, Funeral Attendant, and Educator. I am an alum of SIUC, where I majored in Speech Communication with a specialization in Interpersonal Communication. I am actively involved in the community, serving on various boards, and I am a proud member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Mu Kappa Lambda Graduate Chapter.

I’m excited about being a part of TEDx. Initially hesitant to apply, I'm grateful that a good friend encouraged me to do so.

As you can see, I wear many hats. I've learned (and am still learning) how to be authentically myself without allowing the space to change who I am, but rather to empower me to change the space I'm in. Can't wait to see you on March 30 for TEDx SIUC! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
