About

If you spend even a few minutes talking with Angie Carel, you'll quickly notice a few things: she's endlessly curious, she has a calm, steady — yet direct — way of helping people make sense of AI, and she's genuinely grateful to be living through this moment in time. A 25-year business owner and mother of four, Angie brings humanity to every conversation about technology.

Angie's background is in strategy and creativity. Over the past three years, she has developed a rare balance: a deep understanding of how the technology works paired with a vivid imagination for what people can do with it.

Today, Angie guides and trains organizations through AI transformation and is involved in advising higher education institutions participating in the $500M Lilly Endowment AI initiative.

Angie speaks on national and international stages, joins conversations on podcasts, and frequently appears as an expert panelist.
