AI & Applied Tech Founder | Building Updrav — Presence Intelligence & Operational AI | Ex-Solutions Architect at Swift (Brussels) | Process & Systems Optimizer

About

I’ve always been interested in building systems that turn complexity into clarity. Today, I’m co-founder at Updrav, where we’re building a sensory intelligence platform that transforms unused data — from video, audio, and environmental sensors — into actionable business intelligence. Organizations capture enormous volumes of sensory data that is stored, monitored, and rarely used. Our goal is to unlock this dormant data and convert it into clear, usable insights through simple, modular AI systems. At Updrav, I lead the technical vision, platform architecture, and AI development — with a strong focus on real-world deployability, performance in non-ideal conditions, and scalable intelligence design. Earlier in my career, I worked on technology that sat close to real operations — where data existed, but insight was missing. I previously served as a Solutions Architect at Swift in Brussels, designing end-to-end systems across the code-to-cash lifecycle for global enterprises, balancing technical depth with business outcomes. Later, while consulting with a technology firm in Himachal Pradesh, I focused on streamlining processes and improving operational efficiency. During this time, I began working in stealth on what would eventually become Updrav.
