About

I build AI that
actually ships

I'm a Forward Deployed Engineer at Abacus.AI, working at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and enterprise deployment. My job is to take powerful technology and make it land for clients — from architecture to adoption.

Before this, I spent 5 years at kipi.ai building production AI across healthcare, energy, insurance, and supply chain: RAG pipelines, fraud detection systems, document intelligence platforms, and ML models at scale. Clients included ConocoPhillips, Gameday Men's Health, Germania Insurance, and Blue Yonder.

I hold an M.Tech in Data Science from BITS Pilani and am a technical reviewer for Packt Publishing. When I'm not shipping ML systems, I'm writing for Towards Data Science, running half marathons, or logging gym sessions.

"Say yes first. Figure out how later."
