“Heartwired for Equity: Connecting Humanity Through Technology” (tentative title) by is a compelling exploration of the intersection between technology and humanity, drawing on the author’s personal journey from a childhood without access to technology in Guyana and the Bahamas to becoming a leader in emerging science and technology equity. This book delves into the challenges and opportunities of bridging the digital divide and advocates for a future where AI and technology are designed and governed to serve all of humanity equitably. Through a blend of personal narrative, case studies, and actionable strategies, I offer a human-centered roadmap for achieving technology that truly benefits everyone, especially marginalized and digitally underserved communities.
