Korey MacDougall, PhD

Hi! I'm Korey MacDougall. I build busineses that leverage AI to increase human expertise. I also consult with colleges and universities to help them develop strategies and tools around AI. I have a PhD in computational cognitive science, focused on learning and expertise, with post-doctoral training in educational technology.
