As Founder & CEO of DeepVista and former Co-Founder & CTO of Storytell.ai, he combines deep research in reinforcement learning and recommender systems with product-led engineering to turn conversations and large-scale data into actionable signals. At Google he shipped revenue-driving advertising systems and published influential work on reinforcement learning for recommender slates, then led ML science and personalization at Intellimize/Webflow. He currently mentors and builds founder communities through FounderCoHo and advises early-stage startups while serving in StartX’s founder-in-residence program.
