The Magic Can Change Your Life | Alimursal Ibrahimov | TEDxSST Corpus Chirsti Youth

It's not about pulling rabbits out of hats, but about tapping into the unseen forces, potential, and wonder that exist within and around us.

Jordan is a sophomore at Saint Andrew's School, where she has been attending since seventh grade. She grew up in Houston, Texas, and is still getting used to exchanging rodeos for sandcastles! You will usually find her in the theater, where she loves to perform onstage and help manage the backstage. Additionally, she spends what little free time she possesses reading, writing, and playing her guitar, to the annoyance of her two pets.
