My quest is to leverage technology to solve problems and overcome challenges for humanity. I hope to bridge the gap between engineering research, art culture and entrepreneurship.
Over the past 4 years, I have built ocean trash collecting robot swarms in Indonesia, IOT-based farming systems in Burma, credit scoring AI software in Hong Kong, intelligent underwater cameras to photograph sharks in the Philippines, braille devices for the blind in Japan and online education portals in India, among others.
In the process, I have had the opportunity to speak at TED, set a Guinness world record, publish 3 research papers, pitch at Hult Prize, become a Mensa Member and build businesses that are backed by some of the most prestigious venture groups in Asia.
I’ve founded the Vayu Project, Open Ocean Camera, Open-Fintech and osrei.org

The Cali-ePower 12 kW Concentrated Controlled Wind (CCW) Turbine was rooted in the aerospace industry. With a revolutionary design, our turbine is adaptable to a wide variety of wind environments.
Companies want a clean energy solution that will provide low-cost, efficient power that will maximize available space.
Our turbines were designed to work optimally in distributed generation (DG) facilities of 3 – 1000 turbines, providing 36 kW – 12 MW of power. With their higher efficiency, wider power curve and higher power density, our distributed generation facilities provide a more constant and reliable source of green energy.
We provide this wind energy in a way that is also quiet, bird- and bat-safe, and visually blends into the environment better than typical wind turbines.
