About

I build tools that help founders hire, build, and scale smarter. As 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 & 𝐂𝐄𝐎 𝐨𝐟 t𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐳.𝐚𝐢, I am building AI hiring agents that operate across the entire hiring journey. They source, engage, assess, and deliver the right talent with speed and precision, giving teams the clarity and intelligence they need to make better people decisions at scale. I also lead 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐳, where we help startups and growth-stage companies adopt and scale intelligent technologies that drive real business outcomes.

My mission: → Help founders think like operators. → Help recruiters think like builders. → Help teams grow with clarity, speed, and alignment. → Help companies use technology to create value, not complexity. Let’s connect if you’re building, hiring, or scaling your next chapter.
