Hi, I'm Mariel.

I spent almost a decade helping kids in Title I schools close the digital divide. Then I watched their parents — talented, hardworking adults — get left behind by the same technology.

That gap never sat right with me. So I founded A Pop of Tech to help people who've been overlooked by tech systems actually use AI and digital tools to build the lives they want.

I hold an Ed.D. in Ethical Leadership and have spent 16+ years designing workforce and learning programs for people who were told the system wasn't built for them. I know what good learning looks like — and I know that most AI training isn't it.
