๐Ÿ“ Chicago ยท Technical AI leader

Powered by AI,
chai & community.

I help teams cut through the AI noise, find the few places where it actually moves the needle, and build it with them. One cup of chai at a time.

hi, I'm Sandhya ๐Ÿ‘‹

I make AI feel less like magic
and more like a plan.

I'm a technical AI leader based in Chicago. I spend my days turning AI from a buzzword into working software, and my evenings running, travelling and building community. The best AI projects start with a real problem and a good conversation, not a model.

AI

Hands-on with modern AI, from picking the right use case to shipping it into real workflows.

Chai

Every good idea I've had started over a warm cup and an honest conversation. I'd love to have one with you.

Community

I'm happiest bringing people together to learn, share what works and lift each other up.

for businesses

Thinking about AI?
Let's figure it out together.

Whether you're curious, stuck or ready to build, here's how working with me usually goes.

1

Chai chat โ˜•

A relaxed 30-minute call about your business, your goals and where AI might (or might not) help.

2

Find the real wins ๐ŸŽฏ

We pick one or two high-value, low-risk use cases instead of chasing every shiny tool.

3

Start small, ship fast ๐Ÿš€

A focused pilot your team can see, try and trust, with a clear plan for what comes next.

off the clock

Running, roaming
& good company.

When I'm not thinking about AI, I'm training for my next half marathon, planning the next trip or hanging out with my community in Chicago.
