About

I work on AI and machine learning at HubSpot. Previously, I was founder and CEO of Kemvi, which was acquired by HubSpot. We built DeepGraph, an engine that extracts information from the web to accelerate business transactions. We developed novel algorithms that learn to read and understand language like a human.

I believe strongly in the use of science and technology to solve the world’s biggest problems. I am enthusiastic about the future of artificial intelligence.

I've worked on black hole physics1, statistical finance2, human-computer interaction3, and machine learning4. My work has been covered by TechCrunch5, Fortune6, Wired7, BoingBoing8, Technology Review9, PhysOrg10, BostInno11, ScienceNews12, VentureBeat13, Reuters, and others.

I studied physics, mathematics, and economics at Columbia as a Rabi Scholar. I later worked at NECSI, an independent think tank in Cambridge, MA focused on complex systems research.
