AI Integration Specialist • Digital Learning Designer • CEO, Mental Forge Media
James Hammer helps organizations make AI practical, human-centered, and genuinely usable. With more than 23 years of instructional leadership experience and advanced certifications in AI for Learning (Distinction) and Digital Learning Design, James brings a rare blend of education expertise, creative communication skills, and real-world business strategy to the
rapidly evolving world of AI adoption.
As the CEO of Mental Forge Media and Director of AI Strategy for Brick Nation 55, James is the
creator of the Organic Delegation Framework™, a groundbreaking approach that teaches
teams how to use the collaboration skills they already have to communicate effectively with AI
systems.
Instead of overwhelming people with technical training, he focuses on real-world workflows,
practical skill application, and building confident human-AI partnerships.
This method directly addresses the 71% of educators who report little to no AI professional
development, and helps businesses consistently reach 75–80% ROI through strategic AI
integration.
James’s work spans education, enterprise consulting, wellness, public safety, and digital platform development. He has:
Built AI curriculum systems for K-12 and higher education through his AI ATLAS Program
• Designed business transformation frameworks for consulting firms
• Developed AI-supported wellness platforms for first responders
• Contributed to digital architecture for both startups and multi-billion-dollar global platforms
Across every sector, his focus remains the same: make AI accessible, ethical, measurable, and
deeply human-centered.
