Meet The Team
Hi! I'm Hannah!
This is a personal message because this is a personal project. For the past 18 months I've struggled with chronic migraines and in March 2024 I decided to make a big change. I needed more flexibility, less stress and a new direction. Something where my "brain outages" wouldn't matter.
I decided to create a conference!
I want to create an event where people from all backgrounds and experience levels can come together and learn about AI in a friendly unintimidating environment. Because we all need to learn about AI. It's here and it's not going anywhere.
I'm on this journey with the rest of you. I'm learning about AI and I'm figuring out how to help others do the same. Let's learn together!
“I want to thank this incredible group of people from the bottom of my heart. When I asked them to work with me on AI for the rest of us they said yes without hesitation. I'm already so proud of what we've created together!”
