I build, operate, and invest
in AI companies
Product leader turned entrepreneur with a knack for translating deep tech into business outcomes. I started as an ML researcher on autonomous vehicles at Ford, then moved to the business strategy side — because I realized the hardest problem in AI isn't the model, it's the go-to-market.
As Director of Product at Untether AI (later acquired by AMD), I led product strategy for next-generation AI accelerator hardware. After my MBA at Harvard Business School, I founded Guddi Growth, where I evaluated 200+ companies — including 50+ AI startups — developing pattern recognition for what separates AI companies that scale from those that don't.
I think about AI through three lenses: Can you build it? Can you sell it? Can it compound?

AI Startup Investing
Selectively investing in early-stage AI companies where I can add value on product-market fit, GTM strategy, and the bridge between technical capability and commercial traction.
I write about what I see at the intersection of AI, product, and investing — the patterns, the pitfalls, and the counterintuitive truths that emerge when you evaluate hundreds of companies. All my long-form writing lives on Substack, where the builders are.
