About

In November 2023, I gave up my job, taught myself Python and Generative AI, and spent the whole of 2024 and 2025 building AI products. I've spent over 3,000 hours working on AI and building AI apps. I learned AI from scratch as a non-technical person. That means I know exactly where you're stuck: too much hype, not enough time, and no clear path from "this sounds cool" to "this actually works for my team every single day." I've shipped AI apps that worked and ones that failed (like RecurGrow, my AI sales research product). Those failures taught me what AI can reliably automate and where it wastes your money. I work with founders and CXOs in two ways: ✅ Training you and your teams on advanced AI use: advanced prompting, where to use AI vs. not, how to reduce hallucinations. ✅ Publishing monthly AI deep dives on my Substack blog, reaching over 350 senior leaders from companies like P&G, Bain, and Alibaba. Previously, I spent 11 years at Bain & Company as a strategy consultant and as a revenue strategy leader for the Middle East & Africa at ByteDance (TikTok). If you want to learn and use AI for some real competitive advantage for yourself and your team or org, follow me on LinkedIn or DM me.

Recurgrow

Founder

Sep 2024Aug 2025 · 11 mos · Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

  • Built an AI-powered B2B sales research tool. Failed at it. But I learned more building this product in a year than in the previous several years of working in jobs combined - from going deep into LLMs, prompt engineering, and RAG systems, to facing the hard truths of carving out a niche in a crowded market.
  • These lessons now power everything I build and teach.
