Ask about this talk →Succeeding in male-led industries, from someone who trained in film, built in agtech and raised the funding. Women's representation in the boardroom, in AI and on the cap table, and why authenticity is a leadership strategy, not a risk.
Ask about this talk →For five years I stood in front of rooms full of cattle producers and explained the AI pipeline behind our software: computer vision, model training, all of it. Those talks worked because nobody left feeling lectured. People left feeling empowered, able to see exactly where the technology fit their own operation. Making technical topics make sense to non-technical people is the thing I do best.
I come by it honestly. I grew up in a family of performers, in a house full of singing, dancing and acting, and I trained in film at SAIT in writing, producing and directing. The stage feels like home, and story is how I make the technical human.

Press from my OneCup years usually spells it Mokah Shmigelsky. Same person, same stories.
Who's in it, what they're worried about, and how long I've got. I'll shape the talk to them, and they'll leave with something they can use.
