Relying too heavily on technology can create serious gaps in care and communication with older adults. In certain ways, modern technology is failing seniors and creating new challenges to overcome. How can we address these issues? We spoke with Ashlyn Sidhu about why tech keeps falling short for seniors and the simple, human-first approach that actually works.

Ashlyn Sidhu is the founder of Your Senior Tech, an intergenerational organization that helps older adults navigate technology safely and confidently in an increasingly digital world. Through on-site tech support, educational workshops, and scam-prevention programs, she works directly with seniors and senior living communities to close the digital gap using real human support, not complicated tools.

She is currently expanding Your Senior Tech into a nonprofit to scale its impact and reach more communities.
