Giulia Scalaberni

Giulia Scalaberni

Giulia began her journey as a web dev, moved to data analyst and today she’s a product manager of a BI tool in an IT healthcare company, leading remote Scrum teams with members from 8 different cultures, starting from India. She’s relentlessly people‐centric, fascinated by how diverse cultures interact and always reading and exploring differences to make teamwork more “human”. When she’s not shaping product strategy or pondering team dynamics, you’ll find her at concerts imagining the tour management behind the scenes, or with a plane ticket already booked - Osaka and Lisbon are her places of the heart. She’s hopelessly obsessed with bubble tea, loves kangaroos and shares honest storytelling and practical insights that anyone can steal and use tomorrow.

Michael Forrester

Michael Forrester

Michael Rishi Forrester leads the AI workforce transformation stream at Accenture
LearnVantage, where he advises enterprise leaders and engineering teams on running
agentic AI in production. Thirty years across operations, DevOps, and cloud
infrastructure, most of it spent close to where systems actually break.

His work centers on Agentic Covenants, a governance and security model for agentic
AI built on a hard-won lesson: guardrails enforced by the AI tool are bypassable,
guardrails enforced by infrastructure are not. He builds MCP servers, runs Claude
Code daily, and grounds his sessions in real Kubernetes clusters rather than
slideware.

Speaker at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon, DevOpsDays, SREday, LLMday, KCD, and AI
Engineer World's Fair. Certifications across AWS, CNCF, and NVIDIA.

Alexander Chernov

I design and deliver intelligent data and AI infrastructure, bridging principal-level engineering practice with peer-reviewed research and external technical leadership.

My work focuses on building reliable, governable, and observable systems for scientific and regulated environments—spanning agentic AI, data platforms, control planes, and emerging computational paradigms.

I am active across IEEE publications, conference presentations, technical writing, and open-source prototypes, translating research ideas into practical engineering approaches.

What I work on:

- Agentic AI infrastructure: semantic caching, control planes, lifecycle finite-state machines, and governed autonomy
- Security-critical patterns for autonomous and multi-agent systems
- Strategy and architecture for intelligent data services and Manufacturing Execution Systems
- Near-real-time telemetry, audit, provenance, and decision-record substrates across multi-terabyte environments
- Declarative policy, state, and intent expressed as code through custom resource models, GitOps, and control-plane patterns
- Technical mentorship and cross-functional influence across engineering, MLOps, SRE, and adjacent disciplines

I bring AIOps, MLOps, DevSecOps, and Site Reliability Engineering practices to systems that must remain reliable, explainable, and operable in regulated contexts.

My background spans distributed systems in high-reliability domains: reactive platforms in banking and finance, GxP-aligned pharmaceutical manufacturing systems, and industrial automation for semiconductor manufacturing.

Emma Beckett

Emma Beckett

Emma’s story is anchored in two worlds that rarely meet: elite sport and enterprise transformation. While building a professional football career, she developed deep, practical expertise in large-scale programmes for FTSE and global brands. Her grounding across AI, ERP, CRM and HCM ecosystems positions her as a trusted partner to Microsoft, Dayforce and organisations that want to navigate transformation with discipline, risk awareness and genuine quality control.

Her sporting pedigree shapes her perspective. She sees transformation through the same lens as high-performance football: preparation, drills and strategy come first, and shortcuts simply cost you later. She is known for a direct, engaging style that cuts through jargon and gets to the truth of how programmes succeed or fail. Her talks blend sharp insight with authenticity, humour and sports logic, giving both technical and functional audiences something they can use the moment they leave the room.

Keith Sanders

Keith Sanders

Keith Sanders spent his early years attending Raleigh-Broughton High School, where he developed an interest in teamwork and community responsibility. During that time, he became aware of the importance of helping others during emergencies and difficult situations. After graduating from high school, he attended North Carolina State University. His experience there helped strengthen his understanding of leadership, communication, and cooperation while encouraging his interest in public safety and emergency response work.

Keith Sanders of Raleigh later pursued firefighter training through Western Wake Fire Rescue. He completed Firefighter Training I and II, gaining the technical knowledge and physical preparation required for emergency response duties. The training focused on organization, teamwork, and the ability to remain calm during stressful situations. This stage of his life became an important step toward entering active firefighting service and provided the experience needed for future responsibilities in public safety operations.

Keith served as a firefighter from 1999 through 2003, responding to emergencies that required focus, preparation, and reliable teamwork. During those years, he worked in demanding situations where quick decision-making and communication were essential. The experience shaped many of the values that continued guiding his life after his firefighting career ended. Although he stepped away from active service in 2003, he remained connected to emergency response efforts and continued supporting community-focused projects whenever possible.

Keith Sanders of North Carolina became more involved in nonprofit organizations and volunteer outreach after transitioning out of the fire service. He supported groups including Rise Against Hunger, A Place at the Table, Artspace, and Project Reach Out. In addition to nonprofit involvement, he participated in church outreach programs and cancer fundraising efforts throughout the state. Much of his volunteer work involved practical assistance and direct participation in projects that supported local communities and individuals facing challenges.

Keith participated in relief efforts during late 2024 after hurricanes caused significant damage in parts of the North Carolina mountains. During those operations, he helped transport water and support rescue-related activities connected to emergency recovery work. His firefighting background remained valuable in situations requiring physical effort and organized teamwork. The experience reflected his continued willingness to assist communities during emergencies and showed how his earlier training continued influencing his actions years later.

Sanders has also explored interests outside public service through appearances in films such as Shades of Grey, French Exit, and Tears of a Clown. Although acting was not the primary focus of his career, those opportunities enabled him to work in creative environments and broaden his experience. Alongside those interests, he remains active through running, biking, and soccer. He has completed several races in the Raleigh area and maintains a lifestyle centered on outdoor activity and physical fitness.

Keith Sanders continues to enjoy spending time along North Carolina’s coastal waters during the warmer months of the year. Boating and fishing remain important parts of his routine, providing balance alongside his volunteer work and community involvement. Fishing has become one of the activities he values most because it allows him to relax while remaining active outdoors. His steady dedication to volunteer service, emergency support, and local outreach continues to reflect the practical values and strong sense of responsibility that have guided his life over the years.
