Below, you will find my recent “in the news” work, which includes webinars, podcasts, and interviews, showcasing a variety of topics that not only highlight my professional journey but also reflect my passion for sharing knowledge, creating meaningful dialog, and promoting equity in education.

Q&A: Dr. Juliann Young on Making Learning in the Workplace More Accessible with Generative AI
“Generative AI is going to change the way all people learn. It’s not just a tool to make classes more engaging — it’s going to completely transform the face of education.”
“It’s not just young people — it’s everybody. The way information is given to us through movies, TV, and media affects how our brains learn.”
“[AI is] a great jumping-off point and will get us very far, but we can’t jump into the abyss and say “AI handled it,” or else we’re going to get burned.”

Autism without Limits
I was proud to present at “Autism without Limits” with my colleague, Rebecca Graetz. We talked about inclusive course design for individuals on the spectrum. I fell headfirst into instructional design when I was trying to help my sons on the spectrum learn. It has all come full circle for me. Following my passions, commitments, and motivations has brought me into a career I never could have imagined as a Psychology PhD student!
