The 250,000-Mile Mission: How Corinne Hoisington is Humanizing the AI Revolution

Corinne Hoisington doesn’t just observe the future of technology; she lives it at 30,000 feet. As a full-time professor of Information Systems Technology at Central Virginia Community College, Corinne has spent over 30 years grounded in the classroom. Yet, her influence is truly global. Traveling more than 250,000 miles annually—enough to circle the globe ten times—she delivers high-impact keynote addresses to educators and corporations in over 70 cities each year across the planet.

From the high-stakes stages of South by Southwest (SXSW) in Austin to Executive LIVE events in London, Sydney, and Johannesburg, Corinne has become the go-to expert for industry titans. Her client list reads like a “Who’s Who” of global innovation: Microsoft Corporation, National Geographic Abu Dhabi, Capital One International Bank, and Cengage Learning.

Her accolades are as substantial as her mileage. As a recipient of the prestigious Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award in Technology, Corinne possesses a rare technical depth that she translates into accessible, actionable wisdom. This expertise is codified in the more than 40 textbooks she has authored for Cengage Learning and National Geographic, covering essential topics from Artificial Intelligence in Business to Microsoft 365.

At her core, Professor Hoisington is a visionary. She stands at the epicenter of the educational revolution, advocating for a future where AI doesn’t replace the educator, but empowers them. Her journey is a masterclass in the transformative power of AI-assisted education, proving that with the right tools and a forward-thinking mindset, we can inspire a generation to achieve the impossible.
