About

I’ve spent close to two decades working across technology, digital systems, and global business. My work has taken me from Sri Lanka to Boston to Ho Chi Minh City, and through multiple waves of change, from early web and supply chains to blockchain and now AI. Over the years, I’ve built and advised ventures across digital platforms, software, and media. More recently, my focus has been on AI, not just as a tool, but as something that is quietly reshaping how people think, decide, and work. I’ve explored areas such as human–AI adaptation, prompting strategy, system design, and the psychology behind how machines influence behaviour. I work with a small team on digital builds, experimentation, and AI-driven systems. Sometimes that means helping improve workflows. Sometimes it means stepping back and asking whether automation is being used wisely at all. Earlier in my career, I worked in global merchandising and supply chain roles in the US and Vietnam. That foundation shaped how I think about execution, scale, and cultural nuance in business. I don’t see AI as hype or threat. I see it as a shift that requires clearer thinking. Technology alone doesn’t solve problems. People do, or fail to. If you’re building in this space and want a steady, experienced perspective on how to integrate AI without losing judgment, I’m open to conversation.

  • Author & Knowledge Curator | Translating 30 Years of Experience into Writing
  • I am channeling decades of experience in technology, entrepreneurship, and global business into books that blend wisdom, strategy, and human insight. I’ve seen the evolution of digital revolutions, the rise of AI, the psychology of business, and the cultural dynamics that shape decision-making.
  • Now, I write to capture these lessons, not as theory, but as lived experience. My focus is on creating work that bridges human adaptability, artificial intelligence, and the realities of business, offering readers clarity and perspective in a rapidly changing world.
  • Writing is not my retirement; it is my reinvention. Each book is a synthesis of patterns observed, mistakes made, ventures built, and futures envisioned. My goal is simple: to distill wisdom into stories and frameworks that last.
