As co-founder & CEO of Edlyft (YC W20), a venture-backed edtech/ HR startup, I scaled the company to over 7-figures in revenue before a successful exit.

Prior to Edlyft, I honed my skills in Product at LinkedIn, as a Software Engineer at Facebook, and earned my B.S. in Computer Science from Yale.

My work has been featured in Yahoo! Finance, Business Insider, Forbes 30 Under 30, Apple, TechCrunch, and more.

The platform I built supported college computer science students across 200+ universities.
