About

To all recruiters: I’m not looking for a new position right now, so please pardon me if I don’t respond to your InMails or messages. To OCR/Doc AI enthusiasts: Open to collaborations and discussion :) 🎬 Teaser: Strong engineering chops 🎞️ Trailer: Deep research brain 🍿 Movie: Builds full-funnel B2B Developer Relations like an ecosystem architect --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Still with me! be my guest and read the transcript of the trailer :) I’m passionate about AI 🤖, storytelling, and helping people—whether they’re developers (soft spot here ❤️) or anyone else. Everyone loves a good story, and I find joy in crafting narratives around transformational AI products that not only resonate with developers but also spark creativity. Not only do I bring content creation to the table but also the very skill that makes it reach to millions of people -Distribution Strategy. With experience spanning software development, AI research, ML engineering, and Developer Relations, I bring empathy, expertise, and rare skills to establish a Marketing Engine that drives short term exposure as well as sustainable long term organic growth. In the past five years, I’ve built Developer Relations pipelines at high-growth startups 🚀 like Rockset (a world-class retrieval system, later acquired by OpenAI), Twelve Labs (a video intelligence startup backed by Index Ventures, Radical Ventures, and NEA), and Abacus.AI (an AI Super Assistant backed by Index Ventures, Eric Schmidt, and Ram Shriram). Before that, I was an AI researcher at the LEARN Lab at UT-Arlington, working with Dr. Huber on an image captioning agent that topped the Ms-COCO leaderboard 🏆 and earned the Best Student Paper Honorable Mention at BMVC 2019. My career began as a backend developer, creating software to make life easier for accountants and financial analysts. That journey gave me the skills to bridge deep technical expertise with human-centric storytellin. I’m always excited to explore innovative ideas and collaborations. Let’s connect and make things happen! 💡
