I'm CEO & Founder of Canvas AI building the future of Sales backed by YC.
Back in high school, I built a gloves distribution business making 6 figures in revenue selling to local businesses through cold calling and ebay.
Later in college, I built AI systems at Twitch and AWS, co-founded Komma (sales automation), and started CodeLab, a student builder club (now 150+ members)
I'm based in SF and love to play backetball, grab coffee, and hike. Feel free to reach out, you can find me on Twitter.

covid hit and all meetings went online. scheduling a time to meet for clubs and group projects was a pain so we built komma to automate it. realized sales reps had a similar problem so we sold to them.
noticed there wasn't a strong builder community here, so founded and led
CodeLab, which has become the largest builder club at uc davis with now over 150 members. we build software for both students and tech companies like Snapchat and Reddit.
started a glove distribution business in high school to support my family, reaching 6 figures in annual revenue. sourced latex and nitrile gloves and sold to SMBs including mechanic shops, medical clinics, and dental offices. prospected using yellow pages, cold called, delivered products, and later expanded to selling on ebay.
