Burn Labs helps small businesses and communities understand, adopt, and actually use AI — without the jargon, the overwhelm, or the pressure to have it all figured out.
I'm Elisa — founder of Memory Burn Collective, certified AI consultant, and someone who genuinely believes that understanding new technology shouldn't feel like a barrier.
I built Burn Labs because I kept seeing the same thing: small business owners, community leaders, and everyday people who were curious about AI but didn't know where to start — or who to trust to help them figure it out.
I'm not a big firm. I don't speak in acronyms or sell solutions you don't need. I sit with you, learn your context, and help you find what actually makes sense for where you are right now.
Burn Labs is where that work happens.

All of them start with a conversation.
You've heard about AI. Maybe you've tried a few tools. But you're not sure what's actually useful, what's hype, and how any of it applies to your specific business. That's exactly where I start.
We'll look at how you work, where you lose time, and where the right tools could genuinely help — then build a clear, practical path forward. No tech background required.
AI talks that don't feel like a sales pitch or a TED Talk from 2022. I speak to groups who are curious but cautious — people who want honest, accessible insight into what AI actually is, what it can do, and how to think about it without feeling behind.
Every talk is tailored to the room — community events, business conferences, team meetings.
Hands-on. Practical. Built around your actual questions. Designed for small groups who want more than a presentation — they want to leave with something they can actually use.
We'll explore tools together, work through real scenarios, and make sure everyone walks out with more clarity than they came in with. Available virtually and in person.
Burn Labs is the research and innovation arm of Memory Burn Collective. MBC is where moments become products — candles, journals, memory preservation services designed to help people slow down and be present.
Burn Labs is where ideas are tested before they become anything else. The tools we explore here, the frameworks we develop, and the conversations we have — they feed everything MBC is becoming.
Two brands. One vision. The same curiosity at the center of both.
