ALTA Names Chris Hacker AI BootCamp Facilitator
CHICAGO, IL — ShortTrack, the industry-leading universal bridge for title and settlement integration, is proud to announce that Chief Technology Officer Christopher Hacker has been selected by the American Land Title Association (ALTA) to serve as a discussion facilitator for its upcoming Virtual BootCamp: AI for Small Business, taking place on April 16th.
This first-of-its-kind program is designed to deliver practical, real-world guidance to title professionals on how to harness the power of artificial intelligence. As a facilitator, Hacker will lead virtual peer group conversations, helping attendees navigate the complexities of AI implementation, risk awareness, and operational efficiency.
“AI is no longer a futuristic concept for the title industry; it is an immediate operational reality,” said Christopher Hacker, CTO of ShortTrack. “However, the challenge for many small business owners is bridging the gap between technical potential and responsible, compliant implementation. I am honored to work with ALTA to help title professionals translate these powerful tools into actionable, secure strategies for their daily operations.”
The ALTA BootCamp focuses on equipping title agents with tools they can immediately put to work. Hacker was selected for his unique “dual-track” expertise. As a former associate attorney at Kirkland & Ellis LLP with a degree in Chemical Engineering, he possesses a rare ability to navigate both the technical ‘logic’ of AI and the rigid legal and cybersecurity frameworks required in the settlement industry.
At ShortTrack, Hacker has spearheaded the integration of AI-driven automation, focusing on enhancing workflow efficiency while maintaining the “Bank-Grade” security standards the company is known for. Over the last decade, he has taught thousands of real estate professionals on topics ranging from digital security to technology adoption best practices.
“Christopher’s participation in this ALTA event underscores ShortTrack’s commitment to industry education,” said Steve Hargraves, COO at ShortTrack. “As the industry’s trusted switchboard, we believe that understanding the ‘why’ behind the technology is just as important as the technology itself.”
