CEO and Co-Founder

AI Rising

At heart, I’m a Lean and Agile advocate dedicated to driving value in every project I touch. My journey has taken me from spearheading Lean and Agile transformations to co-founding the AI Rising Conference, where we’re setting the stage for practical AI applications in business.


My dual passion lies in the intersection of technology and effective delivery methodologies. I believe in dreaming about the future while actively building it, especially now with the limitless possibilities AI brings to the table. AI Rising is more than an event; it’s a community we’re nurturing to explore how AI can solve real-world business challenges.


Beyond AI, I’ve been deeply involved in fostering inclusive tech communities. As a proud co-founder and Treasurer of getWITit, I’m committed to supporting diversity and inclusion in the tech world.


Specialties include Event planning, Conference Organization, SAFe, Agile, Scrum, Coaching, Kanban, Transformation, and Delivery Leadership. Whether it’s through delivering cutting-edge products or empowering teams to excel, my goal remains the same: to create lasting impact and deliver tangible business value.

They’ll explore common adoption challenges, such as resistance to change, ethical concerns, and system integration issues, offering strategies that worked. As AI reshapes roles and decision-making, the discussion will turn to the evolving skill sets leaders need and where AI is headed next. The session will wrap up with each panelist sharing their top advice for executives looking to harness AI effectively. Expect a candid, insightful conversation with practical takeaways on making AI work in the real world.
