An engineer at heart, and an entrepreneur for life, I believe that what makes a company are its people. What makes an organization successful is how the people act and make decisions. Off the record ;) I am a blogger, a voracious reader, a drummer and love running.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai isnβt just a startup community β¦ itβs a mindset .Β eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. Itβs been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. Iβve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here β people who genuinely want to see you succeed.Β Itβs a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. Iβll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders donβt just grow businesses β they grow together."

Over the next three years, eChai didnβt only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."
