A bit more.
The arc doesn't start with a job title — it starts in 2005, in a place where owning a computer was still a luxury, not a given. I taught myself to program on whatever access I could find, building small things badly long before anyone called it a career path, because that was the only way in.
That self-taught instinct is what a B.E. in Information Technology from RGPV (2005–2009) and a postgraduate program in AI/ML from the University of Texas at Austin later gave a vocabulary to, not a replacement for. Over 14+ years since, it's shipped a mainframe-to-RPA conversion that closed a $45M contract, a pharmacy automation system that gave 50,000+ customers back 3–5 minutes per prescription, and the RPA bots that grew into an automation Center of Excellence at a national bank.
From there it was identifying and shipping that bank's first five Agentic AI use cases, and now architecting the agent identity and trust layer 180,000+ people at a Fortune 50 bank run on every day. Same instinct, higher stakes each time — the personal projects below are where I test it at a size I can talk about openly.

say hello
Open to conversations about GenAI and agentic AI leadership roles, advisory work, and speaking or mentoring — especially if it involves getting agents past a demo and into something a few hundred thousand people actually rely on. Send a message directly, or reach me the usual ways.
