Senior🎓
Top SchoolColleen Mckenzie is an executive leader and product strategist with 15 years of experience designing large-scale human-computer interactions and launching multidisciplinary products. As Executive Director of the AI Objectives Institute she builds tools for collective deliberation and researches how predictive simulations and post‑AI economies reshape democratic decision-making. Her background blends hands-on engineering and product roles at Google with founding and scaling startups, where she led UX, research, and cross-border teams to ship complex hardware‑software services. She’s skilled at translating contentious social problems into researchable protocols and practical product roadmaps—work that produced a published dataset on historical technical insights and a protocol for revealing entrenched disagreement.
