About

3x Founder and Energy Alchemist

San Francisco Bay Area

I translate the invisible architecture of energy into practical frameworks for modern living. Through frequency-aligned rituals and lifestyle optimization, I help leaders restore clarity without sacrificing ambition.

Over twenty years of building companies, teams, and ecosystems taught me one lesson: the strongest organizations are built from the inside out. Sustainable success always comes back to people.

Through CareerWellness, I help high-growth startups build exceptional engineering and product teams by combining AI-powered recruiting with human judgment, empathy, and deep market insight. We have helped startups make 500+ successful hires, almost entirely through referrals.

That same belief led me to build HZen, a daily self-renewal platform that helps ambitious people cultivate clarity, calm, and alignment in seven minutes a day.

Before founding CareerWellness, I co-founded a division of NASSCOM, led multi-million-dollar energy projects, and advised organizations including Wells Fargo and AXA.

“Whether I’m helping founders build exceptional teams or helping people reconnect with themselves, my mission is the same: build from the inside out.”
