Founder · Engineer. Complex technology, made useful. I build intelligent systems that turn deep engineering into products people can use: from antenna software to AI products.

WHAT I’M BUILDING

Three products. Less friction.

Products exploring how AI and thoughtful engineering can make everyday tasks easier.

01, Live. ReceiptCal: nutrition tracking, without the logging. Private tracking from your digital food receipts, with results you can review. 02, Active build. Manifest: from idea to investor-ready. An AI workspace for validating ideas and working with investors. 03, Public beta. Open Media: one feed, one inbox, every network. Post and message across open networks, with feeds that explain themselves.

ReceiptCal case study ↗  ·  Open Media source ↗  ·  All work ↗


How I got here. Four chapters, one thread. 2014 to 2018, Invent: B.Tech at Symbiosis; an assistive navigation system for blind users became a published patent application. 2018 to 2022, Engineer: RF software at MathWorks on the antenna and RF toolboxes, and AI optimization. 2022 to 2024, Commercialize: M.S. in Engineering Management at USC, plus technology commercialization at USC Marshall. 2024 to now, Build: MathWorks by day, founder of ReceiptCal, Manifest and Open Media.

The common thread is translation: from electromagnetic models to tools engineers use, from fragmented data to accountable systems, and from ambitious ideas to working products. I’m most useful where a problem crosses boundaries: architecture and interface, model and workflow, technical feasibility and commercial value.


ENGINEERING THAT SHIPPED

Tools engineers use every day.

Before founding, I built RF and antenna design software in MATLAB. Some of that work is documented publicly.
