International Program Coordinator

At 19, I left home and moved to another country with no money, no safety net, and no plan - just the belief that I was meant for more.

Since then, I’ve walked through fire more than once: divorces, parenting alone, financial struggles, personal losses, and making bold moves of leaving a successful corporate career, to rebuild my life totally from scratch…

Each chapter of this journey was not easy and sometimes terrifying, yet it became important stepping stones of who I am today.

It is what allows me to do what I do best - 
help leaders and organizations evolve through change with clarity, courage, and connection.

⭐️ Who I Am

I help organizations bridge human intelligence and artificial intelligence through agentic voice technologies, leadership enablement, and transformation strategy.

My mission: make AI adoption feel human, effortless, and profitable.

I’m CEO of APEK.ai, leading teams that build secure Agentic AI & Voice Solutions for Enterprise - helping organizations modernize operations and humanize their communication through intelligent automation.

With over 20 years in enterprise transformation, leadership strategy, and reinvention, I blend AI innovation with human insight to help people and businesses grow from the inside out.


⁉️Who I Help

	•	Enterprises ready to evolve beyond legacy systems and embrace secure, human-centric AI.
	•	Executives and founders navigating reinvention, burnout, or uncertainty about their next chapter.
	•	Leaders in transition who look successful on paper but quietly ask, “What’s next for me?”

When People Come to Me (and my team)

They come when success feels heavy, change feels impossible, or they’ve outgrown the version of themselves they used to be.
They come when transformation stops being a concept - and becomes personal.

💡 My Belief

True reinvention happens when technology and humanity evolve together.

That’s why my mission is to help people and organizations:
	•	Adopt AI intelligently.
	•	Reinvent fearlessly.
	•	Lead with voice, not noise.

Associate Vice President & Managing Director

Practical EQ + AI | Author & Researcher on Human Behavior in the Age of AI | Exploring Future-of-Work Skills and Responsible AI | Book: AI Uncomplicated

I’ve spent years studying systems: healthcare systems, business systems, human systems. What I’ve learned is that no system works without self-awareness.

Titles and strategy matter far less than curiosity, empathy, and ethics.
The real work is understanding why we think the way we do, how we make decisions, and what drives us to act even when no one is watching.

I teach and research topics related to ethics, behavior, and the human experience, helping future leaders navigate complexity with moral clarity. Outside the classroom, I write about the intersection of behavior, emotion, and meaning: how people build trust, confront change, and try to live well in a noisy world.
