Timeline of a Gifted Kid | Jaina Dumas | TEDxNichols School Youth

How do we get labelled as “Gifted” and what does that actually mean. For our teachers, our classmates, and ourselves, we have a lot of unpacking of high expectations and no participation trophies. Second year as speaker for TEDxNichols School Youth. Has a passion for Art and Music, as well as engineering. A writer; a thinker of random crazy new ideas that could be the next best thing or maybe not; someone who always tries to lighten things up if the mood is down. Has been called a goofball by her friends. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
