About
I’ve always believed you can achieve anything, as long as you don’t give up. Today, alongside an extraordinary team at Modular, we’re rewriting AI infrastructure from the ground up—building the AI hardware abstraction layer for the world.
We started with a dream, and have raised $130 million from some of the world’s leading investors and had an epic launch video in 2023 - with even more coming. From Monash, to Melbourne and to Stanford University, I chased ideas across computer science, mathematics, law, and finance—collecting tools, perspectives, and the conviction that nothing worthwhile ever comes from standing still.
Before Modular, I spent six years at Google. There, I helped steer the machine-learning revolution: architecting the very core of production AI infrastructure, co-founding on-device ML to reach billions of devices, and dancing onstage before 20,000 people at I/O—not for applause, but to celebrate how technology can unlock human potential. Working with visionaries like Chris Lattner on multi-level compilers and driving open-source projects like MLIR and XLA taught me that innovation thrives on collaboration and fearless generosity.
I’ve helped create APIs, compilers, runtimes for servers, CPUs, GPUs, TPUs, mobile phones, microcontrollers, and the web—knitting them together and scaling them for the world. I’ve seen startups skyrocket to $10 million GMV and learned that grit isn’t given; it’s earned through every stumble and spectacular failure along the way.
Leadership, to me, is nothing more than earning trust. If your team doesn’t believe in you, they won’t follow you. Empathy is everything—step into the user’s shoes, tell stories that resonate, and empower people to dream bigger than they thought possible. You’re not a leader until your team makes you one.
AI will change the world in ways we can barely imagine. And this? This is only the beginning. Together, we’re not just scaling machines—we’re igniting possibility. Go build something insanely great, and change the world.
