about

tldr; grew up on the internet, now i grow things on it.

i like making things people use. and getting those things in front of people who'll care.

i've taken startups from zero to millions of views and arr (within days), closed six-figure influencer deals, and built growth engines across reddit, x, and linkedin — all before most people finish their first internship.

right now i'm the founding growth hire at kairos, and building calorie.dev, a cal ai substitute for the indian dietary on the side.

i write code. i write copy. i ship both fast.

if you want to know more, here are some things i believe in.

growth and gtm measured interfaces and thoughtful experiments.
