Hi,

I’m Lara—author, AI strategist, digital transformation expert, and someone who believes technology should work for people, not the other way around. I’d love to share a bit about my journey with you!

Late 1990s – My Fascination with AI Begins

My journey with Artificial Intelligence began in the late 1990s when I first encountered the power of language and technology to change the world. I studied Computational Linguistics and Artificial Intelligence at Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich, where I was fortunate to receive a prestigious government scholarship for highly gifted students. It was at this point that I realised AI was my true calling - something that I wanted to immerse myself in fully.

2003 – Expanding Horizons at Trinity College and Harvard University

In 2003, my journey took me further to Trinity College Dublin and later to Harvard University, where I deepened my understanding of AI in dynamic international environments. It wasn’t just about theory - I wanted to experience how AI was transforming industries and lives, and these experiences gave me the global perspective I needed.

2007-2010 – Exploring the World and Tech Innovation

Between 2004 and 2010, I lived and worked in Germany, Dublin, and India, during a time when the tech industry was on the brink of monumental shifts. I was eager to be at the forefront of that change, so I traveled across Europe, the UK, the USA, and Turkey. Along the way, I had the privilege of working with global enterprises, startups, and governments, helping them leverage the evolving tech landscape.

2010-Present – 15+ Years of Digital Transformation and AI Leadership

For over 15 years, I’ve been leading the charge in AI, automation, and digital transformation. I’ve been in the trenches, helping businesses modernise their legacy systems, introduce intelligent automation and data integration and transform their operations in meaningful ways. Whether working with large enterprises or small startups, my focus has always been on ensuring that technology serves real people and real-world problems.

2015-Present – Making AI Accessible, Ethical, and Valuable

Since 2015, I’ve worked on bridging the gap between businesses, technology, and human intelligence. I’ve realized that it’s not enough just to implement AI. It’s about ensuring that AI is accessible, ethical, and truly valuable to those who need it most. I help companies navigate through the complexities of AI with clarity and confidence, ensuring they embrace it as a tool that works for them, not against them.

2020-Present – Educator, Author, and Speaker

As an educator, speaker, and author, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my knowledge with thousands of professionals. I love taking complex AI concepts and making them understandable, actionable, and applicable. Whether I’m speaking at conferences, leading executive training sessions, or writing articles about the future of AI, my goal is to help people feel empowered, not intimidated, by technology. Publishing my book in 2025 was a rewarding and enriching experience, allowing me to connect even more deeply with my audience.

My Core Belief: AI Should Amplify Human Potential

At the heart of everything I do is a simple belief: AI should amplify human potential, not replace it. My passion lies in helping individuals and businesses harness the true power of AI in a way that feels exciting, empowering, and transformational. Whether through consulting, hands-on training, or thought leadership, I’m committed to ensuring that AI is a tool for good, helping people achieve more.
