Shelly Thomas

Shelly Thomas

Shelly Thomas, PE, MBA is the founder of Building Beta and one of the few Copilot strategists who has actually run the operations she now teaches executives to transform.

Her career spans 20+ years across oil and gas, manufacturing, and industrial distribution, managing Fortune 500 relationships at Morton Salt's Industrial Division and directing global eCommerce operations at Chart Industries. She brings that same operational accountability into every training room.

Her programs are built for leaders who are time-starved, skeptical, and responsible for outcomes their boards can measure. The goal isn't to make executives into power users, it's to make them the kind of leader who spreads AI capability across their entire organization. The teams who go through her programs become the most valuable resource in the building. That's what she designs for.

Shelly serves on the UAA College of Engineering Advisory Board, co-chairs Alaska's Women in Engineering Advisory Board, and co-hosts the Breaking Frozen Ground podcast on engineering careers in Alaska. She is based in Alaska, and she operates exactly where you'd expect someone called the Copilot Strategist on the Last Frontier to operate.

Gracias por tomarte el tiempo para leer mi biografía, lo cual demuestra tu interés en el maravilloso mundo de las finanzas y la contabilidad de costes.

Permíteme una breve introducción: He trabajado como CFO y controller durante mucho tiempo, y soy apasionado de la técnica financiera y de costes. Disfruto analizando procesos, y esta pasión me ha llevado a impartir clases en distintas universidades, donde he aprendido tanto de mis alumnos como espero que ellos hayan aprendido algo de mí.

Una pregunta que a menudo me hacen es sobre los sectores en los que he trabajado. Para mí, el desafío no es en qué sectores he trabajado, sino cuántos me faltan por explorar y aprender.
Como apasionado de las finanzas, el control de gestión y los costes, actualmente me encuentro inmerso en el mundo de Dynamics, lo cual representa toda una aventura.

Hello! Clojure is my first professional programming language (since about 1.5). I like Clojure---the language and community---a lot (especially #off-topic in the Slack :). I've helped organise IN/Clojure a few times and written and taught our introductory Clojure workshop, at IN/Clojure and elsewhere.

Obviously, I also *really* like Functional Programming. I use principles of FP *and* a-la-carte object-orientation gleaned from Clojurists, all the time, for all the things!

As of 2026, I'm solo-building software for fun and profit, aligned with my interests / capabilities / life experiences. Clojureland helps me stay ambitious, optimistic, and have fun over the long haul while trying to "make it" in this indie life.

My topics of professional interest are: bi-temporal data systems, full-systems architecture for one-person SaaS apps (FreeBSD appliances anyone?), well, also for teams and organisations, and weather data science and products. AMA!

Louise Humpington

Louise Humpington

Louise Humpington brings nearly three decades of experience across commercial law (Financial Services Litigation), international development, human rights, and AI ethics and governance. She has worked in some of the world's most demanding governance environments, including as Country Director for Oxfam in Papua New Guinea and as a Non-Executive Director of Amnesty International UK. Her work focuses on applying those legal, regulatory and human impact lenses to the design, development, and deployment of AI and in interrogating the principles of fairness and accountability to that live within their datasets. She argues that governance must be viewed as a mycelium network and that ethical considerations are no longer a cultural nicety. They are foundational to mitigate risk, avoid legal and bottom line liability, and ensuring that real world harms are caught before damage is done. Governance must be preventative, not a mop up exercise.
