Building the future of intelligent systems
I'm an AI Technology Leader driving innovation at the intersection of Generative AI, machine learning, and immersive technologies. Currently serving as CTO at Iluzia Labs and Director at AyaTech, I architect intelligent systems—from enterprise GenAI chatbots and RAG pipelines to VR learning environments and data-driven EdTech platforms.
My work spans pharma IT automation, retail AI, cognitive science research, and sustainable urbanization—each driven by one belief: technology should solve real human problems.
Focus Areas
“From pharma automation to VR classrooms — every system I build is one step closer to technology that truly serves humanity.”
