Kravets Anna M.A.

I am a sociologist and AI researcher with a strong background in sociological research methods, agent-based modeling, and socio-technical transformations. I enjoy working in interdisciplinary, international teams and helping organizations navigate AI risks and opportunities in a grounded, human-centered way.

What I do

📊 Design and conduct empirical social research (qualitative and quantitative), including interviews, surveys, and data analysis.

🧩 Develop and apply agent-based models (ABM) and digital twins to explore socio-technical change, such as sustainable mobility and industrial transformation.

🧭 Support decision-making processes by translating complex social dynamics into understandable scenarios for stakeholders and clients.

Background and skills

• Trained in project management with a Google Project Management Professional Certificate, combining structured delivery with agile practices.

• Academic training in sociology, social sciences, and global studies, with experience across Europe, South Africa, India, Vietnam, and Ukraine.

• Fluent in Ukrainian, English (C1/C2), and German (C1/C2); advanced French (B2); basic Greek.

How I can help 

• Consulting on AI-related projects, especially where social impact, ethics, stakeholder perspectives, or regulation matter.

• Identifying AI risks and opportunities in organizational or policy contexts, and helping to design realistic, socially informed solutions.

• Contributing to research and innovation projects that require collaboration between social scientists, computer scientists, policymakers, and practitioners.

What drives me 💙💛

My heart is oriented toward work that has social meaning, especially projects that support Ukraine and its reconstruction. I am motivated by building bridges: between technology and society, between disciplines, and between people who might not otherwise meet, but need each other to create resilient, just futures.
