The work

Helping everyday humans
understand AI,
one conversation at a time.

I started in survival. Mental health brought me to advocacy. Advocacy brought me to speaking. Speaking brought me to training. Training brought me to tech. And tech brought me back to everything that mattered from the beginning — making sure people have access to the things that can save their lives.

After the stage

The stage is one room.
Here is the rest of the city.

Eight countries so far. The keynote lasts an hour. The city is everything around it, and that is the part people ask me about afterward. So I write it down: every stop ranked by how far it is from the hotel I actually slept in, real prices, what to order by name, and the thing nobody tells you before you go.

01
Lima, Peru
Six days. A pre-Inca pyramid in the middle of the city, a Machu Picchu replica you reach by boat, a restaurant with no sign on the door, and the fountain park that costs one dollar.
