Meet Anastasia Dedyukhina:

Dr Anastasia Dedyukhina is book author, TEDx speaker, Huffington Post blogger, organizer of the first mindful tech festival Focus Inside and a former senior digital marketer. Having spent 12+ years working for global media and internet brands, she ditched her smartphone in the middle of her senior international career, when she realized how dependent she had become on the gadget. 

Today she acts as a business mentor, supporting ethical tech startups, and runs a tech life balance consultancy Consciously Digital, helping companies and individuals be more productive and less stressed in an age of digital distraction. Anastasia was born in Russia, lived in six different countries, and has an MBA from SDA Bocconi (Italy) and NYU Stern (USA), and a PhD from Moscow State University.
