About Christine Bencivenga

I make AI practical, accessible, and usable for real people.I teach beginner-friendly AI workshops for libraries, nonprofits, business teams, and public sector organizations. My focus is simple: reduce overwhelm, build confidence, and show people how to use AI in real-life ways that actually help.Whether someone is chatting with an LLM for the first time or leading a team through AI adoption, I meet them where they are and give them skills that work across platforms, not just one tool.My background includes recruitment, leadership development, nonprofit work, and human resource management. I hold an M.S. in Human Resource Management from Stony Brook University, along with certifications in Diversity and Inclusion and as a Certified AI Specialist. I bring a grounded, people-first lens to technology, ensuring AI supports communities rather than sidelines them.As a Founding Member of The Octopus Movement, I collaborate with a global network exploring the intersection of AI, creativity, and human potential. I also serve as a consultant within The Human Score, a consultant collective focused on human-centered leadership and ethical AI integration.I believe AI literacy is a modern life skill. The more people who understand these tools, the more inclusive and thoughtful our future becomes.If you are exploring AI training for your organization or simply want to understand it better, I would love to connect.
