Bio

I'm an entrepreneur and technology investor based in Silicon Valley. I have founded and led two innovative software companies.

In 2008, I launched Desitouch, India's first premium music streaming service, providing a compelling alternative to piracy. For this innovation, I was voted among Europe's Top 3 Entrepreneurs under 25 by Bloomberg readers and selected by Seedcamp as the startup incubator's winner.

Later, as Founder & CEO of Kixar Technology in Palo Alto, California, I oversaw the development of pioneering applications, notably Genko, one of the earliest audio-first generative AI platforms.

In 2022, I spent a year as a partner investing at a $350M early-stage venture capital fund, evaluating over 70 startups—including several from Y Combinator—and identifying the fund's first and only AI-focused investment.

I hold a degree in Computer Science from King's College London and a Master's in Management Science from Warwick Business School. I also completed specialized studies in Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks, and Deep Learning through Stanford University's Continuing Studies program.

I am a distinguished Fellow of the British Computer Society, an honor held by fewer than 4% of nominees.
