About
After suffering and battling mental illness and hard drug addictions, attempting suicide, and failing to recover from treatment despite years of trying, I dropped out of Harvard and founded mettleAI to make the process easier for others. After selling the company, I spent time as a VC and advisor. I have previously helped scale startups from Seed to Exit and worked with major players across multiple industries
