Hey everyone! I'm Sherrod Seward, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to our community where we're democratizing AI knowledge and transforming how businesses leverage technology. My Unlikely Journey to AI: My path here wasn't typical. I started as an immigration lawyer in Cleveland, helping athletes secure visas to compete in America. I've represented world champions like Canelo Álvarez and Tyson Fury, worked with Top Rank Boxing, NFL teams, and NASCAR crews. But something shifted when I started seeing brilliant computer scientists and AI researchers struggling with the same visa challenges my athletes faced. I realized I was sitting at a unique intersection - I understood the legal pathways for extraordinary talent, and I was witnessing firsthand the AI revolution reshaping every industry. The Pivot That Changed Everything: Through my firm Innovative Global Talent Agency, I began specializing in O-1 visas for tech talent - the "extraordinary ability" visa that's become the golden ticket for AI innovators. Working with some of the world's best computer scientists opened my eyes to what was possible with AI. I went from drafting visa petitions to building AI automation systems. From representing athletes to architecting solutions for Fortune 500 companies. Today, through Innovative Automations, we're not just talking about AI - we're building the tools that make it accessible to everyone. Why This Community Matters: Here's what I've learned representing the world's top tech talent: The difference between those who thrive and those who get left behind isn't access to AI - it's understanding how to leverage it. I've helped computer scientists from Google, researchers from MIT, and founders building the next unicorns. They all share one thing: they see AI as a tool for amplification, not replacement. Our Mission Together: This isn't another tech bro AI hype group. This is where immigration lawyers become automation experts. Where traditional businesses become AI-powered enterprises. Where anyone - regardless of their coding ability - can harness the same tools that Silicon Valley's elite are using.
