Laurie Gray
I bridge the communication gaps between humans and technology—helping people, teams, and organizations understand and trust the intelligent systems they use. My creative solutions are fueled by user empathy, deep design expertise, and a passion for building AI experiences that empower, not replace, humans.
Whether it’s users and technology, customers and brands, or teams within organizations, I bring clarity and alignment to complex conversations. With extensive experience in User Experience and emerging AI strategy, I’m a human-centered strategist who thrives in collaboration. My empathy fuels solutions that stick, driving innovation, adoption, and real business impact.
As AI becomes the third party in every digital interaction, clear and ethical communication is more critical than ever. My specialty is helping organizations design and deploy successful AI efforts that work with people: transparent, trustworthy, and purposefully human.
