Speaking

In March 2026 I gave a keynote at the CISOA Technology Summit in Riverside, the annual gathering for IT leadership across California's community colleges, with 841 attendees, 98 sponsors, and more than 60 sessions over four days.

I hosted the "Empowering Teams with AI" track at QCon San Francisco 2025, curating the speakers, shaping the through-line, and running the room for a day on getting real productivity out of GenAI.

At the Developer Productivity Engineering Summit I spoke with Eric Wendelin about build vs. buy, what we learned piloting AI coding agents at Netflix, and building a champions community that makes adoption actually happen.

I'm a member of Women Defining AI, and co-hosted the community's SF Bay Area Netflix Tour in Los Gatos with Beatrice Stonebanks. A small, members-only afternoon with Netflix's Women's ERG on inclusion, allyship, mentorship, and representation.
