I am CEO at DeepWave, a company dedicated to enabling computers to understand sounds like humans, achieving multi-faceted sound processing, including detection, separation, transcription, and conversion, thereby converting sound into meaningful information in databases or sound-driven interactive experiences. My background in anthropology has honed my cultural sensitivity and empathy, enabling me to gather valuable insights and turn them into actionable design and business strategies. My mission is to bridge the gap between techs and markets and to empower them to create innovative and impactful solutions.
