Hi, I’m Deb Haas – former HR exec turned accidental entrepreneur, AI whisperer, and sparkle-hearted truth-teller for the modern job seeker. After 24 years at a global consulting giant, I was laid off in 2024 and thrown headfirst into the wild terrain of job searching, personal reinvention, and learning how to market myself without throwing up. Now I help humans (especially mid-career women) ditch the performance anxiety, embrace their weirdness, and show up boldly in a system that wasn’t built for us – but can be reshaped by us. Whether I’m teaching AI through metaphors and side-eye or building playful tools for the future of work, my mission is clear: help people feel more human in a world that keeps asking us to be machines.
Anatole Chouard
I am a science and environment speaker, as well as a master of ceremonies. I also create science outreach videos on my YouTube channel Chez Anatole, for which I received a grant from the French National Centre of Cinema.
My goal is to explain complex topics—like IPCC reports, the biodiversity crisis, or artificial intelligence—in a clear and rigorous way.
