Trecia Warnholz is a technology strategist and founder of AIColabs, where she works with leadership teams to help them make informed, practical decisions about AI, digital systems, and the future of their organizations.

Her career has focused on one central question: How can technology better support the people and organizations using it?

Through her digital strategy and implementation studio, Created in Color, Trecia has spent years partnering with nonprofits, foundations, and mission-driven organizations to design, build, and improve the digital ecosystems that support their work. From websites and knowledge management systems to operational workflows, analytics, and digital infrastructure, her experience spans both the strategic and technical sides of organizational technology.

As AI began reshaping how organizations work, Trecia saw a familiar pattern emerge. Many leadership teams were being asked to make significant technology decisions before they had the context needed to evaluate the opportunities, risks, and long-term implications.

She founded AIColabs to help change that.

Rather than beginning with tools, AIColabs begins with understanding the organization itself - its mission, people, processes, data, governance, and goals. From there, Trecia helps leadership teams develop practical AI strategies that strengthen existing work, improve decision-making, and create a clear path for responsible adoption.

Her approach combines technology architecture with organizational strategy. She believes successful AI adoption depends less on the technology itself and more on the decisions that surround it: how systems connect, how data is managed, how responsibility is shared, and how change is introduced in ways that people can understand and sustain.

Today, Trecia advises organizations on AI strategy, digital transformation, knowledge management, technology governance, and organizational readiness. Her work helps leaders move beyond the hype, build confidence in their decisions, and ensure technology remains in service of the mission - not the other way around.
