We’re very excited to announce that adventurer Erik R. Lindbergh, grandson of aviators Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, will be a keynote speaker at TBEX 13 in Toronto.
A commercial rated pilot, artist, entrepreneur, and master storyteller, Erik’s story is one of triumph over adversity. Erik won the all-around Washington State Gymnastics Championships at age 11 and excelled in water-skiing, and alpine and telemark ski competitions during his teens.
