AI & Speaking

Workshops, talks, and strategic guidance on modern AI

I work with colleges, universities, and other organizations that need technically grounded, honest, and usable guidance on AI.

Ways I Work

Strategy

Institutional AI Strategy

Support for leadership teams thinking through AI governance, curriculum, assessment, and institution-wide planning.

Education

Workshops and Training

Sessions for faculty, staff, students, and professional teams on how modern AI systems work and how to use them responsibly.

Curriculum

Curricular Design

Consultation on undergraduate AI, machine learning, and reinforcement learning courses, including sequencing, projects, and framing.

Talk Topics

  • How large language models actually work.
  • AI literacy for faculty, leaders, and professionals.
  • AI, assessment, and academic integrity.
  • AI in higher education after the first wave of reactive policies.
  • The future of work in an AI-saturated environment.
  • What a serious university AI curriculum should include.

Engagement Formats

  • Single-session workshops from 90 minutes to 3 hours.
  • Short faculty or staff development series.
  • Keynotes, public talks, and moderated conversations.
  • Leadership advising and strategic planning sessions.

Most engagements begin with a short conversation about audience, technical level, and institutional context.

What the work is for

The goal is not generic AI enthusiasm. It is to help people build a clear model of what current systems can do, where they fail, and how institutions can respond without confusion or panic.

  • Clarify capabilities and limits.
  • Design realistic policy and governance responses.
  • Build curricula that outlast the current news cycle.
  • Give educators and professionals actionable understanding.
