I'm Ashley Gross, a Forbes-recognized AI consultant named one of the highest-paid AI consultants in the market, and for the past six-plus years I've helped enterprise teams turn AI experiments into real results. This work started out of necessity. In 2020, I didn't get a maternity leave, and that experience pushed me to build AI-powered systems that gave people back real time and flexibility, starting with my own. That became AI Workforce Alliance, and it's why every talk I give is personal, not theoretical. I'm the Wiley-published author of The AI Workweek, and my sessions focus on the practical side of AI adoption: how leaders make smart decisions, avoid wasted budget, and get their teams actually using AI instead of just talking about it. Audiences walk away with a clear, usable plan, not a technical deep dive, which means every session works whether the room is full of executives, managers, or general staff.

Kevin MaC is a serial entrepreneur, songwriter, in-demand performer, and out-of-the-box creative whose career spans music, technology, and consumer brands. Known for his ability to pivot across industries, Kevin has built and scaled companies by blending creative intuition with disciplined business strategy—and by leveraging relationships in unexpected ways. Kevin began his career in the music industry, earning songwriting credits with songs that charted on Billboard and received airplay on country radio. As a performer, he has become an in-demand artist at country music festivals, with his guitar taking him across America and around the world, performing for diverse audiences and building authentic connections through live music. Rather than following a traditional path, Kevin broke into the Nashville music scene by forging relationships outside the genre, collaborating with hip-hop legends —a bold move that helped him navigate Nashville’s tight-knit country music community. Using his music background Kevin pivoted into technology with TIKPIK, a disruptive product that became the #1 selling guitar pick on Amazon, appeared on Shark Tank twice and secured major partnerships and consulting with Fender Guitars, Disney, Ducks Unlimited, Marvel Comics and Guitar Center. Kevin is also a business partner of Mark Cuban, underscoring his ability to operate at the highest levels of entrepreneurship and innovation. Kevin’s entrepreneurial journey continues with his song inspired Elsie Marshall All American Straight Bourbon Whiskey, where he applied the same principles of innovation, branding, and calculated risk-taking to successfully enter a crowded spirits market. Across every venture, Kevin demonstrates that creativity, adaptability, and relationship-building are the foundation of lasting success. In 2026, Kevin’s songwriting legacy reached historic heights when his poignant anthem, "Carolina When I Die," was officially named the newest state song of South Carolina. Bringing his deep southern roots to the national stage, the historic track was recorded by a powerhouse trio of South Carolina legends—Darius Rucker, Edwin McCain, and Patrick Davis—solidifying Kevin’s place not just on the radio, but in American music history.

Ashley Gibson helps mission-driven organizations understand why good values alone don't prevent burnout, and what actually does. She developed the Maladaptive Organizational Copy Process (MOCP) to explain how relational patterns become structurally embedded in organizations -- and why they keep reproducing burnout even when leadership changes. She founded Meaning in Practice as a consulting, training, and speaking practice for purpose-driven organizations - from healthcare and nonprofits to associations, trade organizations, and values-led corporate teams. Her work asks the clinical question most organizational advisors skip: Why do well-intentioned systems keep producing the outcomes they're trying to avoid? It's built on a counterintuitive premise: When people care deeply about their work, they're not protected from burnout... they're more exposed to it. Before clinical practice, Ashley spent 13 years in marketing leadership - including serving on the original team for Broadway's "Hamilton" at The Public Theater and as Vice President of Marketing at DC's National Theatre. She holds graduate degrees in arts management and clinical mental health counseling, and is a National Certified Counselor with advanced EMDR training. Audiences leave with new language for a problem they've been trying to solve at the wrong level - and a framework for actually changing it. Best fit for: nonprofit leaders, healthcare and human service organizations, education teams, arts and culture institutions, foundations, associations, and purpose-driven companies.
