I’m an educator, researcher, human enthusiast, and attention activist.
For over a decade, I’ve helped people and organizations navigate distraction, burnout, and rapid change. As faculty at the University of Colorado Boulder, I teach about digital well-being, neuroscience, and the evolution of human potential.
My work blends science, intuition, and presence to help people, workplaces, and communities reconnect to what matters—
clarity, purpose, and meaning.
Annie Margaret is an educator and inspirational speaker exploring the intersections of mental health, technology, addictive design, and mindfulness. Her work investigates how emerging psychotechnologies and ancient contemplative practices can restore human agency and well-being in an era marked by technofeudalism, distraction, and the commodification of our sacred human attention.
She earned her Ph.D. in Cell and Molecular Biology from Northwestern University in 2014 and brings a unique perspective that bridges rigorous scientific training with experiential, participatory approaches to knowledge. She partners with companies to foster cultures of empathy and resilience and facilitates workshops that empower creative technologists to reconnect with purpose, intuition, and authentic voice.
Annie creates reflective spaces designed to nurture the deeper capacities essential for human flourishing - compassion, self-inquiry, embodied wisdom, and relational intelligence - preparing students to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving world with clarity, resilience, and heart. At the core of her work is a commitment to supporting the evolution of human consciousness, grounded in both scientific inquiry and lived experience.
