About
I'm building PumpGTM in San Francisco, an AI agent that finds the buyers who are ready to talk and runs your outreach. We're backed by Y Combinator.
I also write about AI often. My articles garnered over four million views in 2025 and I was featured in the New York Times, Futurism, Inc. Magazine, and many more.
I discovered my passion for programming at the young age of 13 years old. With over 15 years experience in building, I have built apps used by millions of users.
