Mentoring at The Courthouse

Krittika D'Silva

My career has been shaped by a single tension: the gap between what technology can do and who actually benefits from it.  I'm a computer scientist with a PhD from the University of Cambridge. I spent five years at McKinsey working on AI and digital transformation, helping organizations move from strategy to execution at scale.  Today, I'm Director of Strategic Initiatives at the International Rescue Committee, deploying AI in some of the world's most complex humanitarian environments.

I can speak to mentees on AI, digital transformation and strategy.


Information for mentees:

  • Please arrive 5 minutes early to check in for your mentor session. Late arrivals (anyone not present at the start of their booked session) may lose their slot to a walk-up attendee.
  • If a session is fully booked, you’re welcome to try as a walk-up in case a booked attendee doesn’t attend.
  • We would recommend preparing a brief introduction about yourself, along with any specific questions or areas you’d like guidance on from your mentor.
