Beyond the Stage

Adina’s work in AI builds on more than two decades in higher education, where she taught business, developed curricula, introduced new approaches to teaching, and led initiatives focused on generative AI. Her interest grew from the practical questions AI raised in her own work, including how it could support learning, how it might change the skills people need, and what responsible use should look like.

This experience also gave her a close view of the distance between having access to AI and knowing how to use it effectively. Through PurpleOwl AI, she now focuses on helping non-technical audiences connect new capabilities with the realities of their own work. Her approach combines clear explanation and practical application with careful attention to human judgment.
