AI Educator · Podcast Host · Founder, Data Parity AI

I make AI more human and more equitable.

Both in how it's built — and in who gets to build it.

About

I spend my time in three places: building Data Parity AI, helping organizations catch the bias and blind spots before it becomes a costly, misaligned decision. Hosting Empowered by AI, where I talk with women across industries putting AI to work in real, grounded ways. Leading the She Leads AI Academy, where women move from AI overwhelm to AI action.
