Monique is President and Co-Founder of the Humanized Internet,

most underserved, blockchain is certainly a potential mechanism for this billion
people challenge.
She was former Cisco CTO New Forntiers Engineering. Her greatest  success has been in infusing a big-picture perspective that helps engineers and business leaders understand how existing and future technologies align with the needs of business, government, non-profits, and society-focused organizations. To this end, Monique was honored as Business Worldwide Magazine’s 2016 Visionary of the Year (Technology, Social Change and Ethics) and 2016 Social Media Champion of the Year. Monique is passionate about the humanitarian use of technologies. 
Monique believes that our identities must be managed by us via decentralized, open technologies – else there is strong potential for abuse.
