    I support the Drupal AI Initiative by helping shape how the community understands and adopts artificial intelligence across content, editorial, and enterprise workflows. My work sits at the intersection of product strategy, inclusive design, and practical implementation. I focus on demystifying AI for real-world use, developing training materials, leading workshops and hackathons, and working with teams to ensure AI tools enhance human capability rather than replace it.

    I contribute across several areas:
    • Training and advocacy, including public webinars, conference sessions, and hands-on exercises
    • Strategic guidance on AI adoption inside Drupal, from recipes to automators to vector search
    • Community content development, including documentation, demos, and practical playbooks
    • Collaboration with module maintainers, hosting providers, and other contributors to improve integration patterns
    • Promotion of inclusive, neurodiversity-aware approaches to AI design and governance

    I bring deep experience from product management, accessibility, neurodiversity advocacy, and enterprise digital programmes. My goal is simple: make AI in Drupal more usable, more transparent, and more equitable, so teams can build stronger systems with less friction.
