Choosing a Mission in Life | Marjorie Abalos | TEDxLaSierraUniversity November 10, 2017
“Pick something that you are passionate and enthusiastic about that will permit you to utilize skill sets unique to you.”
– Marjorie Abalos. “Choosing A Mission In Life”
On November 10, 2017, Marjorie Abalos was one of the speakers selected to deliver a talk on her “Great Undone” at TEDxLaSierraUniversity in Southern California on her life’s experience trying to find a purpose as a woman, an immigrant, and a person who truly wanted to make a difference in the world. Marjorie and her family found their way to the United States with little money, English, or knowledge of what they were getting into, but a desire to participate in the American Dream. However, through persistence and grit, she attended college and began a career as a successful tech entrepreneur. She applied her skills not only to business but also to doing good for the world through the CLODS system and her work in global health.
