BACKED BY KHOSLA VENTURES
FOUNDED 2019 BY EX-SALESFORCE & ORACLE EXECS
First PM on the AI product line. Built it from zero.
Runtime AI governance and data protection — shipped to Fortune 500s and leading AI labs. Started at nothing; now a $1M+ ARR line.
01Zero to $1M+ ARR — first AI product line, from first spec to first million
02Ships governance for AI agents, LLM memory, and sensitive data at runtime

The full file. Skyflow is B2B SaaS privacy infrastructure — the AI Runtime Data Control Platform. I own the AI line end to end: discovery, spec, GTM, and the hard middle where research meets revenue.
Scale is the craft: payloads from 1KB to 10GB, JSON five layers deep or fifty, customers doing 2 requests a minute next to ones doing 6,000 — running across 50 GPUs and 100 pods without breaking. Taking "the model works" to "the system runs at scale" is where the real engineering lives, and my job is turning that into products customers understand and buy.
Along the way: judged AI hackathons at the AWS Builder Loft, ran the booth at Databricks Data+AI Summit, and wrote the thinking in public — some of it below.

EXHIBIT B — BERKELEY LAB · RESEARCHER
JAN 2023 — FEB 2024 · QUANTUM COMPUTING
U.S. DEPT. OF ENERGY NATIONAL LAB
HOME TO 16 NOBEL PRIZES
Built the data platform behind qubit control systems.
01Designed the storage & visualization platform for the open-source QubiC control stack
02Shipped one of the field's earliest database-level data-versioning systems
03Turned the work into a thesis, then two publications — incl. Nature Scientific Reports. See the papers ↓
Engineering first, product second.
Before product, I wrote software at Rakuten — global e-commerce scale. It's why engineers don't have to translate for me: I absorb the hardest technical problems in their language.
01Shipped features end to end with the Japan team — clear documentation to unit tests, across time zones.
02Started as an intern; my manager's words: "a boundary-less professional."
FIG. 03 — EDUCATION
Two degrees, both run like startups.
DEGREE 02 — M.S. COMPUTER SCIENCE · UT ARLINGTON
2022—24
Studied at UT Arlington. Thesis with Berkeley Lab.
01Master's thesis at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab — "A collaborative research platform for data management & visualization of qubit control" — the work that became QubiCSV and both published papers.
0250% tuition scholarship — earned a research position in year one.
03Three internships during the degree, and co-founded PaperTalk.io with friends to make research accessible.

FIG. 06 — PRODUCT PHILOSOPHY
How I think about product.
01
Great PMs are the bridge. Engineering, business, sales, and the customer — the job is managing all four pillars of the org and delivering the highest-leverage outcome across them.
02
Clarity is the job. A PM's first task is bringing clarity to the table — and communicating it so well that nobody has to ask twice.
03
Simpler wins. Think from usability out: how does this get simpler and better for the customer? Complexity is my problem, never theirs.
04
Ship, ship, ship. Don't burn days on reversible decisions. Save the deliberation for the irreversible ones — and ship everything else constantly.
05
Taste is the moat. At the end of the day it's judgment and taste — and the only way to earn either is real empathy for the customer.
NOTE 02 — THE ONE I LEARNED THE HARD WAY
A founder is judged by one question: will somebody buy this? A PM is judged by taste: does this make it better for the customer? Get both into one person — that's the whole game.
