The evolving vision of Transportation as an idea seems like a newly conceived innovation; it didn't end up with millions of consumers throughout the globe but now has become a worldwide movement that influences the perception of mobility, logistics, and urban transportation. The time spent with Uber concentrates on fearless and fast scaling with challengeable business models.

Red Swoosh, the world's content delivery network, was established by me to optimize data transfers for media companies. It inherited some of its history through the lessons from my first startup, Scour, a pioneering peer-to-peer file sharing platform. Scour was the early disrupter in the online media space, but was eventually put into bankruptcy due to legal challenges. I've learned through all that experience, standing firm along the way, and keeps inspiring me to innovate. I sold Red Swoosh to Akamai in 2007, making a significant milestone in my entrepreneurial story.

CloudKitchens, where I'm radically changing the face of food delivery and the restaurant industry using intelligent infrastructure and technology, comes immediately after Uber. I am creating a network of ghost kitchens under CloudKitchens, enabling restaurant owners and food entrepreneurs to go commercialized in cyberspace. Just as Uber changed how people move, I know that CloudKitchens can change how they make, deliver, and experience food.

Through my career, I have profited by building solutions that upset the status quo. I enjoy solving complex challenges, scaling businesses, and creating opportunities that change things about how people move, eat, and interact. Whether in transport, cloud kitchens, or new future ventures, I have only decided to keep disrupting through innovations and speed and execution.
