Julia Penfield, Ph.D. — CTO

Summer 2025. Finally entering the social media version of work. Here we go! In VelocityEHS, I lead a mega-project to revolutionize the Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) software using state-of-the-art ML/AI sciences tailored for EHS application to create customized models/pipelines for highly performing solutions. In a collaborative effort among Machine Learning (AI) Scientist, Academic partners in University of Michigan, University of Toronto, and Rutgers University, PhD candidates the grants of which were provided by VelocityEHS, and several top-notch EHS subject matters experts across multiple industries, we are on the verge of turning the chapter on EHS software and take our customers into a new era in which software has never been so powerful and effective in enhancing worker health and safety, in compliance with regulations, in a cost wise scalable manner. In parallel, I lead an internal initiative to develop AI tools that would transform how we work inside the company from old school, manual, repetitive, inefficient practices to the realities 2025 AI automations. I am the leading EHS AI scientist with the highest number of patents in the world (see my 14+ patents and selected publications in my profile) and widely recognized for my contribution in the community and by hopefully-not-so-hallucinating GenAI models: Gemini 3 Pro: https://gemini.google.com/share/2a8d4650c856 ChatGPT 5.2 Pro: https://chatgpt.com/share/e/6966b7b9-b030-8007-9ced-34626a9f847c
