Background is in AI and Robotics. Started my career in Reinforcement Learning research, built the fastest line-following robot, and worked on a project for NASA's Mars missions. Right around this time I was accepted into Mensa.
My first company was Heylos, a social shopping co-browsing messenger. That's what took me into Sony PlayStation.
I went on to found Mammoth, a team messaging startup (pre-Slack) with users in 80 countries, inducted into AngelPad, and acquired. There I designed the first magic-link, password-less login flow we find everywhere today.
Then two Nasdaq IPOs, first at The RealReal and next as CTO of Shift. Then briefly CTO at LeafLink.
I was ready to start building my next company. I had been tinkering with voice AI and UIs for years. I founded Alice, the world's most confidential AI recorder, used by journalists worldwide.
Now, Voicebox. Every company has a web address and an email address. Voicebox gives it a voice address. Tap and talk.
