Building intelligence
for humanity.

I work at the intersection of ethical AI, mental health, investigative truth, and storytelling — building an ecosystem designed to serve people, not extract from them.

Who I Am

Thirty years building tech.
Now building the right thing.

Born in Tehran, raised in Brunswick, Maine. Dartmouth '93. I spent three decades building technology companies — helped Cox roll out some of the first cable modems, founded Clearleap (acquired by IBM Watson in 2015), and created more than $1.7 billion in enterprise value across ventures with IBM, Ericsson, Cox, and Cognosos.

At the end of 2025 I resigned from a well-paying job where I was building AI models whose main purpose was justifying mass layoffs. I liquidated my assets and committed entirely to what I'd been thinking about for years: technology that actually serves people. That became Integrity Group.

Documentary

“
A story about what happens when ambition, moral collapse, and institutional power collide — and what it takes to rebuild from the wreckage.
Rude Awakening  ·  A Documentary Film  ·  In Production

I had the career. The company. The life. Then I started asking the wrong questions — or maybe finally the right ones. Rude Awakening is a first-person documentary about moral crisis, institutional failure, and what it looks like to actually start over.

What I Believe

Build systems that protect human dignity in the age of AI.

I'm not anti-technology — I've spent my career building it. But I think we've made choices that have done real harm: optimizing for attention over wellbeing, for scale over safety, for extraction over service.

I want to build the alternative. That means AI that's transparent, mental health platforms that actually help people heal, investigative work that holds institutions accountable, and stories that remind us why any of this matters.

01

AI shouldn't be a black box shaping human behavior without consent.

02

Systems should serve people — not extract from them.

03

Healing is infrastructure. Truth needs both evidence and narrative.

04

Capital should be aligned with measurable human impact.

05

Community isn't a feature — it's the foundation.

The Ecosystem

Four connected efforts.
One thesis.

Not a portfolio of unrelated bets. Each one reinforces the others — technology, health, justice, story, and community, deliberately connected.
