ABOUT ME

I’m a serial founder and builder who thrives in the trenches with early-stage companies and founding teams. Having founded and scaled two AI startups (one foundational LLM, one sector specific application) to over $35k MRR each, I’ve been through the highs and lows of taking a business from idea to execution—and I love every step of the journey.

My expertise spans ideation, implementation, and go-to-market strategy, making me a versatile partner for teams looking to get to Product-Market Fit (PMF) and beyond. Whether it’s defining the vision, building the PoCs, MVPs, or closing the first deals, I’m here to help you move fast and make things happen.

Highlights

  • Startups: Founder and operator of two AI companies achieving $35k+ MRR.
  • AI/ML Engineering: Fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, ETL pipelines, OpenAI integrations, Gemini integrations
  • AI/ML Research: Published researcher with deep knowledge in LLMs, graph based inference, task orchestation, NLP, and information retrieval.
  • Tech Stack: Full-stack developer with proficiency in Python, Django, React, Typescipt and scientific programming.
  • Operations: DevOps experience with AWS, GCP, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Growth: Experienced in marketing, sales, and scaling products from zero to revenue.

Why Work With Me?

I’m not just a builder—I’m a partner for founders who need someone who "gets it." I understand the scrappiness, the ambition, and the creativity it takes to build something new. If you’re navigating the messy, exciting early days of a startup, I can help you turn vision into reality.
