How “She Runs on AI”
Theresa swears by ChatGPT as a go-to AI tool.
"We have a subscription as a company, so I keep the prompts and answers private and unavailable for training the public LLM. Whether I’m drafting investor updates, developing go-to-market strategy, or translating complex tech into simple and compelling narratives, ChatGPT helps me think more broadly, write with more clarity, and lead more effectively"
Her #1 AI Hack
Use AI as a thought partner, not just a tool. When I'm stuck, I’ll prompt it like I’m having a conversation with a smart colleague or friend—asking for perspectives, trade-offs, or creative reframes. Ask for counter-narratives, potential land minds, and what it thinks you should be asking to get a better outcome. I also love asking for it to review a draft email or communication and tell me what it believes the “tone” and “impact” of the message will be for a particular audience.
How AI Changed Her Routine
"I’m a perfectionist, so I can spend hours polishing documents, building ppts from scratch, or researching across multiple sources.
With AI, I am reclaiming that time for higher-value work and spend less energy drafting and more time deciding, aligning, and connecting with my team, customers, and investors"
Her Advice to Women Exploring AI
"Don’t wait to be an expert—just start experimenting. The sooner you begin using AI in your day-to-day, the faster you'll build confidence and discover where it truly amplifies your strengths. AI isn’t about replacing your instincts—it’s about freeing you to focus on what matters most"
