Tech Entrepreneur & AI Expert
Cofounder & CEO of SilverAI
Ph.D Computer Science | Advisor | Tech Futurist
I've spent nearly a decade at the frontier of AI: from my Ph.D. in Computer Science and postdoc in deep learning to teaching AI at universities. I've published research, trained master's students, and worked as a Machine Learning Engineer in enterprise before founding SilverAI. Over the past four years, I've turned that deep technical foundation into AI products that solve real problems for over 50 million users.
At SilverAI, we build consumer AI products that millions trust daily. From SnapEdit's AI-powered photo editing to FitRoom's virtual try-on technology, we prove that AI should feel magical, not complicated. We also power hundreds of enterprise clients through our APIs.
Beyond building our own products, I help companies navigate AI adoption with clarity. I've seen what works and what doesn't across industries. Whether you're evaluating AI investments, need a reality check on your AI strategy, or want to understand which opportunities are worth pursuing, I bring insights from both building and scaling AI at the frontier.
I work with leaders who want straight answers about AI strategy. No buzzwords, just actionable insights on where the real value lies and how to capture it.
Every week, I decode what's happening in AI and tech: the breakthroughs that matter, the opportunities others miss, and the shifts that will reshape industries. Join leaders who read my newsletter for insights they can actually use. Join the newsletter →
SnapEdit is ranked #26 in a16z's Top 50 Gen AI Mobile Apps, serving over 40 million users worldwide. We transform complex photo editing into simple one-tap magic.
Whether you're removing unwanted objects or enhancing photos with AI, SnapEdit just works. Photographers, content creators, and everyday users get professional results in seconds. No learning curve, no complicated tools.
We also power hundreds of enterprise clients through our API platform. They integrate our AI into their workflows because it's fast, reliable, and actually delivers on the promise of AI: making hard things easy.
FitRoom is our latest breakthrough: virtual try-on technology that looks real. Users see exactly how clothes will look on them, no fitting room needed. The results are so good, people can't believe it's AI.
We've invested heavily in R&D to achieve photorealistic results that exceed the best in the market. We don't settle for "good enough" because shoppers deserve technology that feels like magic.
Fashion brands, retail chains, and e-commerce platforms partner with us because FitRoom transforms their customer experience. We help them offer the personalized shopping experience that was impossible just years ago.
