Hi, I am Nancy - a rational optimist, a humanist, and a world citizen. My drivers are optimism, courage and speed. I am fascinated by how technology can help enrich people lives. Ambiguity, inconsistency, novelty and surprise spur me on as I rely on intuition and integrating action early on into the thinking process. Working with emerging tech since 1995, I have held several senior leadership positions at AWS; Google, Microsoft, Avnet covering a broad range of consumer and industrial businesses and technologies such as IOT, Mobile, Digital, AI, Cybersecurity, Hardware and Software platforms. I have studied, worked and lived in the United States, Germany, Romania, Italy and France.
In 2018, I found a non-profit initiative to drive education, inclusion and diversity in Artificial Intelligence – we connect 150 AI experts from various disciplines with a mission to enable 20 million people with AI by 2025. I am also the founder and curator of #humanAIze – Activating Your Mindset! - a top European exchange platform for AI & Humanities.
I advise global companies, startups and governments on digital and business transformation. I also support MIT as a Judge for Artificial Intelligence for their program Innovators Under 35, and Bitkom Germany as a member in their Council of Experts for AI..
My book The Proust QuestionnAIre - Artificial Intelligence in a stunningly diverse way, was published in February 2020 and is top ranking in positive reader reviews.
