Rider Harris
Founder of GoBananas.ai, AI Consultant, and Speaker
Rider Harris is a Las Vegas-based AI consultant who has taught 10,000+ professionals to master ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity Microsoft Copilot, and company's internal AI tools through hands-on workshops and keynotes. As founder of GoBananas.ai, he helps companies turn AI investments into provable revenue gains.
The Journey
Rider began his career in inside sales at fintech leader C2FO, where he first experimented with ChatGPT to write emails, cold-call scripts, and objection responses — slashing prep time from minutes to seconds.
When friends and coworkers started asking for help, he realized the opportunity was bigger than one sales quota. Within weeks he left his role and committed full-time to teaching others how to work smarter with AI.

Personal Philosophy
Keep It Human
AI is a powerful assistant, not a superhero. People and context come first.
Show, Don't Tell
Every session includes live, role-specific exercises so attendees leave with muscle memory, not just slide decks.
Beyond Work
When he's not on the road leading workshops, Rider experiments with new AI tools, creates tutorial videos, and explores the outdoors around his new home in Las Vegas.
