Shilo Shiv Suleman—illustrator, animator, and storyteller—says she used to be a bit of a technophobe but she’s been won over by the possibilities of technology, where she finds and creates a kind of magic, a new kind of story that involves readers. In this Ted Talk, “Shilo Shiv Suleman: Using tech to enable dreaming” (7 minutes, 36 seconds), she will charm and delight you.

(Note: Intel sponsored Suleman’s Ted Talk, and at the end of her talk there’s a 4-minute report about Intel’s work to bring technology to women and girls in India. Get info about Intel’s Programs for Girls and Women here.)
