About

I help businesses scale with Agentic AI and Big Data systems that create real enterprise value—especially in fast-moving domains like Performance Marketing, AdTech, Health-tech, Sales and Customer Support. Whether you’re a CxO navigating AI transformation or a team drowning in unstructured data, I can help you plug leaks, automate workflows, and scale decision-making with AI systems that just work. Let’s connect if you’re building something bold. Bonus points if you’re allergic to fluff. ✌🏾 With 15+ years of experience (from startups to large tech companies), I’ve led cross-functional teams through high-stakes product cycles—from unstructured chaos to productized clarity. My work spans industries like Healthcare, Retail, Finance, and Education, always with a bias for action, experimentation, and velocity. My core strength lies in building data-first foundations for AI innovation. From architecting SQL pipelines in my sleep to launching LLM-based assistants, I move fluidly across strategic vision and atomic execution. I’m not a “maintenance-mode” leader—I’m called in when things are changing fast. I guide teams with clarity, transparency, and momentum, helping companies find and fix critical gaps, then scale sustainably. 🚀 Techpreneur with 15+ years across AI, Big Data, and Full-Stack Engineering; hands-on with 0→1 GenAI & RAG products. 🧠 Hybrid thinker: Engineer’s precision, Entrepreneur’s instinct, Salesman's Storytelling , Therapist’s empathy. 🧵 Builder of agentic AI systems that transform Performance Marketing, Customer Support, Sales, AdTech, and MarTech. 🧬 Proven expertise in Generative AI, LLM tooling, Data Engineering, and Scalable Systems Architecture. 🛠️ Built POCs and scaled AI/ML platforms in industries from Healthcare & Finance to Retail & Streaming. 🌐 Thrives in chaos: scale-ups, strategy shifts, and inflection-point projects—not “maintenance mode”. 🪄 Thought leader: Workshop facilitator, speaker, and community advocate for applied AI & data infra. 🧰 Loves crafting robust GTM playbooks: segmentation, pricing, personas, expansion. ⚙️ Passionate about productizing AI in real-world systems—not just research, but business impact. 🎨 Aspiring artist & YouTuber (2K+ subs), balancing the analytical with the creative. ⏳ Prioritizes energy over hours: can’t do the 9-to-5—but will build machines that never sleep.
