About

I am a Doctoral candidate and a four-time founder, focused on the intersection of artificial intelligence and the foundational infrastructure required to run it at scale. My work examines how AI is reshaping global economics, from cost structures to competitive advantage, and how new paradigms like serverless inference will define the next generation of enterprise technology. As co-founder of InferX, I am leading the commercialization of a multi-tenant inference runtime built on six years of deep R&D. Our vision is to provide the "OS for AI Compute" that makes real-time AI scalable, efficient, and economically viable, enabling what we call "Civilized Inference." In the last four months alone, I have led the go-to-market strategy that has taken InferX from raw technology to a company with significant market validation: Commercial Traction: Secured a production-ready contract, and advanced deep technical pilots with major enterprises and cloud providers, including Fortune 500 company and Multiple Hyperscalers. Strategic Interest: Generated inbound collaboration interest from a Major Cloud and received and rejected a multiple significant acquisition offers from major infrastructure players to build a standalone company.
