Founder & CEO
Iterant AI, Inc. — Delaware
Incorporated the company, recruited the engineering team, set product architecture, and own the intent-classification system design. The work is moving from research mode to operating mode.
Marketing Lead
Deep-tech B2B startup
Built out two of the company's market-facing lines, and made the internal case for verticalizing around the automotive beachhead.
Lesson taken forward: a SaaS pricing model layered onto deep-tech B2B can produce negative unit economics for a year before the math is visible. Pricing is strategy, not a knob.
MCIT, Computer & Information Technology
University of Pennsylvania
Coursework across databases, AI, and big-data analytics — including CIS 5500, CIS 521, CIS 5450. STEM-designated; the formal training I needed to stop being a "non-technical founder" in any conversation that mattered.
Outside the classroom: hackathons, Penn's startup & VC community, and a deliberate habit of connecting alumni — the network that later opened real doors.
Personal Research Assistant to the Dean
USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism
Day-to-day support for the Dean: organizing research materials and preparing for meetings, keeping the minutes, and debriefing the academic reasoning afterwards.
