Find the right speaker for your next event
LATEST UPDATE I'm happy to announce I will be touring with the multi-media theater presentation collective Pop-Up Magazine for eight dates at the end of October 2022. The tour will cover eight cities starting in Oakland, California, and ending in Nashville, Tennesse on November seventeenth. Public speaking is in my blood, you might say. My first encounter with presenting was in 1971 thanks to The Atlanta Braille Project in front of then First Lady Pat Nixon. My presentation was about 7 minutes with me being an early advocate for accessibility for all who were Braille readers. Fast forward to today. I advocate for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging principles. An employer can hire a diverse workforce, but do they genuinely feel included in the company culture? Belonging is a new concept that closely correlates with the other three elements, we always feel a part of something when we have a sense of belonging. I teach that important lesson to corporate gatherings and thought leaders within corporations and governments. If you are looking for a speaker who has encountered these corporate cultural barriers and broke through them then I am your gal. I tell my personal story but also include statistical-based analysis and describe scenarios that allow every group of employees to be empowered to learn, grow and embrace the new concepts of diversity, equity inclusion, and belonging thus removing the former barriers and opening a path for constant team collaboration.

I am the wife of Lead Singer/Bassist Wayne Nelson of Little River Band, as well as an author and motivational speaker. Even though I’m always on the go, all across the U.S., deep Southern roots are at the core of who I am. In 2016, I wrote “A Different Life” to share mine and Wayne’s life story and to share what it’s like to be married to a member of an iconic band that is still touring heavily after 43 years. I pull back the curtain to share some of our lives’ funny moments, tragic moments and to give you an intimate peak behind the scenes. At the age of 50, having been linked with the name of an internationally famous rock band and living with the misconceptions that can bring, I have become passionate about sharing the message “LOVE THE LIFE YOU LIVE”. Embracing middle age, being fearless in defining and achieving your own success(es) and loving the life you create for yourself is the heart of the message I share when I’m speaking and touring out on the road.

AI Governance Engineer | EU AI Act | Generative AI | Agentic AI | Google Developer Expert (ML) | Published Author, Apress
Germany
Most AI compliance failures are not model failures or legal failures. They are architecture failures. Built wrong from the start, before anyone asked what the EU AI Act would require. My current focus, working under Aevoxis Solutions (a project of SMartDe eG) is EU AI Act compliance engineering for agentic and generative AI systems — specifically Articles 9, 12, 13, 14, 17, and 50, translated from regulatory obligation into production architecture decisions. I have published two peer-reviewed preprints on Article 50 implementation and have a paper under review at IEEE Software documenting twelve empirical failure modes found by stress-testing a live governance system. I have been identifying these kinds of structural gaps before the industry names them. A decade ago that meant a patented VR headset designed around human ergonomics when the industry was still ignoring them. Now it means AI systems designed around EU AI Act obligations before most engineering teams have read the regulation. The pattern is the same. The domain has changed. If your organisation has deployed a generative AI system, a chatbot, a copilot, or a RAG-based assistant, it almost certainly has obligations under the EU AI Act right now. The gap most teams face is not legal understanding. Their lawyers can identify the problem. The gap is that nobody on the team can fix the architecture. That is where I work.
