AI & Data Storyteller
✍️

I make complex technology feel human. For 10+ years I've been turning jargon, buzzwords, and late-stage funding rounds into stories people actually want to read. From AI newsletters to podcasts — if it's about tech, I'm probably writing, talking, or yelling about it.

The Bottom Line

My best friend (and work partner) Karandeep and I break down the most gripping tech trends the way two journalists who care too much about tech would — over coffee, in Hinglish, with zero filter. Bi-weekly, no fluff, maximum "wait, I had no idea!" moments. We sound smarter than we are. LOL.

When I'm not writing...

You'll probably find me down a rabbit hole — either watching a sci-fi film or a good thriller I've been saving for a rainy day, or reading about something that has absolutely nothing to do with my job. I'm a certified movie buff (massive understatement), I love a great story in any medium, and yes — I genuinely, unironically, enthusiastically love Minion talk. Bello! 🍌
