About

I am an AI-native operator: business-minded, technical, creative and product-oriented. Versatility is my strength. Ultimately I want to channel my light toward solving important problems, using whatever tools are needed.

Entrepreneur in Residence, neolabs

neolabs is a startup studio. Inside it I founded and ran Trovee, an agentic AI company focused on inventory and home management agents.

Trovee - AI Inventory and Home Agents

The core product was the inventory. One photo of 50+ items returned every one of them identified, cut out, valued and searchable in two seconds, shipped as an iOS beta. Agents built on top of it acted on what it knew, first for moving and then for home services. We took it into pilot conversations with Fortune 500 partners.

As founder and CEO I owned it end to end: the business strategy and partnerships, the product, and the pre‑launch site and brand. I managed an engineer and a business development rep.

Every one of these started as a problem I or someone close to me had, or out of curiosity.

AI Health Insurance Claims Agent

Health insurance reimbursement is paperwork nobody gets around to. Send the agent a photo of a receipt on Telegram and it takes it from there: it works out which claim it belongs to, asks for anything missing, logs into the insurer's site, fills the form, and follows the claim until the money arrives. It asks for approval by text before filing.

Career HQ - AI Job Search System

Finding the right job is a full-time job, and the human brain has a limited context window. I built a tool that finds relevant job openings, looks through everyone you know to find a door into them, tracks progress, and moves them across the pipeline on its own. LinkedIn meets headhunter meets CRM, run by talking to it in plain language or by dragging things by hand.

Real app

Career HQ people board: columns for lead, reaching out, in contact, next steps and done, each card carrying a next step, who is waiting, and how overdue it is. — The board: every contact and where things stand.

Fully Automated AI YouTube Channel - Biohacking

One sentence makes a video. It finds a topic worth covering, checks every fact before writing a word, makes the title and thumbnail, writes a script to fit them, generates the video, fills out the description, tags and timestamps so it gets found, and schedules it to publish.

AI Tools to Manage Real Estate Listings

I helped run the day to day on a family portfolio of South Florida commercial property, and built agents to do the listing work. Drop in the photos you shot on your phone and they come back looking like a photographer took them, in the order you would walk the building. From there it writes the listing, posts it on LoopNet and Crexi, the two sites where commercial space gets advertised, and builds the brochures and the outreach emails. It also researches what each building is best used for and comes back with the tenants worth calling.

NBA Fantasy Draft Assistant

A fantasy draft is 130 picks long, it moves in minutes, and every pick anyone makes changes what you should do next. I built a draft assistant. It watched thirteen analysts' videos, pulled out every pick they recommended, and turned it all into one ranking of 150 players.

On draft night it was connected to my Yahoo account, watching the live board. Every pick anyone made updated my board on its own: who was still available, what my roster was missing, which stats my team was weak in, and whether I could still afford to wait on a player or had to take him now.

IDF & Campus Activism

Israel Defense Forces

Paratroopers, Battalion 101 · Unit 551 reserves · Staff Sergeant

Born abroad with no obligation to serve, I flew to Israel at eighteen to draft as a lone soldier. Passed a selective tryout to join the Paratroopers, served as a team-leading sharpshooter and extended for a second border.

On October 7, 2023, during my first semester at Columbia, I flew back the same day to join my reserve unit, one of the first units deployed in Gaza. Back in class in January.

Students Supporting Israel

President, Columbia chapter

Elected to lead a 350-member organization through the most contested year on an American campus in decades. I moved it away from talking to itself and toward building relationships with student groups who had no obvious reason to talk to us.

Primary media spokesperson, and engaged directly with the president of Columbia on student safety. The work earned me Columbia's Leadership and Service Award.
