In nuclear energy, medical devices, and critical infrastructure, ungoverned AI isn't a future risk. It's a present liability. I build the governance architecture that closes the gap — before regulators, auditors, or incidents do it for you.
AI is Being Deployed.
Is It Being Governed?
“She connects policy, ethics, and real-world impact in a way that is grounded, accessible, and credible."

About Dorrian Wilson
I don’t Just Advise On Governance.
I Build It.
AI is being adopted faster than it's being governed. In nuclear energy, medical devices, and critical infrastructure, that gap isn't theoretical. It's a liability with real consequences for real people.
I grew up understanding that the systems people depend on don't always account for the people who need them most. That knowledge didn't lead me into activism. It led me into architecture.
I'm an AIGP-certified AI Governance Architect with active engagements in critical infrastructure and regulated healthcare AI. I build enterprise governance programs from the ground up — intake systems, risk classification frameworks, and cross-functional accountability structures that hold up under regulatory scrutiny and actually get adopted.
My background is not a straight line. I studied Theatre. I spent years learning to listen so deeply to another person's experience that I could represent it accurately. That skill didn't leave when I moved into technology.
Governance that doesn't account for the humans in the system isn't governance. It's paperwork.

What I Do
-

Enterprise Governance Architecture
I design and operationalize end-to-end AI governance programs including intake systems, risk classification frameworks, policy standards, and cross-functional accountability structures that hold up under regulatory scrutiny and actually get adopted.
· AI intake & vetting workflow design
· Risk classification frameworks (Low / Medium / High)
· Model registries, model cards, audit documentation
· NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, EU AI Act alignment
· AI Governance Council formation & facilitation
-

Speaking & Thought Leadership
I speak at the intersection of AI governance, equity, and real-world impact for audiences who need more than theory. My talks translate the stakes of ungoverned AI into language that moves decision-makers to act.
· AI governance in critical infrastructure
· The human cost of ungoverned AI
· From policy to practice: governance that gets adopted ·
Agentic AI and the new governance frontier
· Responsible AI for non-technical leaders
-

Training & Organizational Readiness
AI governance only works when the humans in the system understand it. I train decision-makers, not just compliance teams, to operationalize responsible, human-centered AI at every level of the organization.
· Executive & board-level AI governance workshops
· Cross-functional governance training
· Governance readiness assessments
· Change management & adoption strategy
· Human-centered AI integration programs
Making the room feel the urgency of this moment.
I speak at the intersection of AI governance, equity, and real-world impact. Not theory. Not talking points. The actual stakes of what happens when powerful systems operate without accountability, and what organizations can do about it right now.

The right time to build your governance architecture was before you deployed.
The next best time is now.
Whether you're building your first AI governance program, preparing for regulatory scrutiny, or looking for a speaker who can move a room, I'd like to hear what you're navigating.
