20+ years in enterprise technology adoption, including training 20,000+ employees on Microsoft Copilot at Fortune 500 companies. Microsoft certified me as an Immersion Experience Qualified Facilitator for that work.
I'm also an n8n Community Ambassador, a Miro Ambassador, and a Netlify Partner. I've spoken on AI adoption at RiseUp Summit (Cairo) and the Adobe Learning Summit, and I teach a published course on LinkedIn Learning.

Brand and visual identity work, from before Claude was the focus: Beauty by Adrienne Renee (a current, live site), plus brand guides for HKM Consulting, Tierra D, Nonprofit Founders' Club, and LUXE Socialite.
See the full portfolioI spent the first part of my career training 20,000+ employees on Microsoft Copilot at Fortune 500 companies, hands-on in the room, not slide decks. Microsoft certified me as an Immersion Experience Qualified Facilitator, one of their official trainer credentials, for that work. I kept going past Copilot, and People in the Loop, the national AI community and business I built, grew out of it. Today I build real Claude implementations for teams and teach the same hands-on method, applied to AI agents.
The skills behind all of it, in plain terms.
Human in the loop: how a person and an AI agent actually work together, not the theory of it.
Keynote and workshop speaker on AI adoption at RiseUp Summit (Cairo) and the Adobe Learning Summit.
The In the Loop newsletter, a 39% average open rate, and a YouTube channel built around the same idea: show the real work, not a highlight reel.
LinkedIn Learning instructor, with roughly 9,800 learners on a published course.
Brand and visual identity work, from before Claude was the focus.
Beauty by Adrienne Renee. Hair and beauty aesthetics brand: a warm gold and espresso palette, a butterfly motif, and a signature service built into the visual identity.
HKM Consulting. DEI and employee-experience consulting: navy and gold, with competitor positioning and a clear differentiator worked into the guide.
Tierra D. A lifestyle personal brand: floral, feminine, built around a clearly defined customer.
Nonprofit Founders' Club. A full brand guide for a founder-led nonprofit's public identity, for education and grant writing.
LUXE Socialite. A luxury lifestyle brand in mauve and gold, built around a high-touch customer experience.
