building shit.
mainly building clave.
i'm a junior at babson and a co-founder of clave, an ai platform for franchise operators. my family has run churromania for over twenty years across ten countries. clave is the tool we wish we'd had the whole time.

blue is my favourite colour.
i like it because it is very versatile.
clave.
an ai platform for qsr franchise operators. it connects to everything operators already use, point of sale, labor, inventory, delivery, and turns it into specific actions. operators see a queue of proposals and act with one tap. no new dashboards. no new logins. just the next move.
i'm building it with my brother tadeo, our co-founder carlos, and our founding engineer valentina. our family ran the problem for two decades before we built the solution.
PAGE 2 OF 5my favourite song is karaoke by roy blair.
i like it because it sounds like that car ride alone after something monumental happened (both good and bad).
stuvi
before clave, my brother tadeo, carlos, and i built stuvi. a studio booking marketplace for musicians. we connected over a thousand artists and studios across boston and miami before it was acquired in 2025.
my favourite shoes are adidas gazelles.
i like them because they are all-purpose, stylish but also functional (i've had six pairs in the last couple years).
churromania
the family business. 140+ stores, ten countries, two decades. i grew up in it and still work on product development. everything i know about operations started here.
my favourite thing to carry with me is a pocket-sized notebook.
i like it because i feel like there is always something to write down and reflect on later.
letallgirls
letallgirls is a nonprofit i run alongside clave. we build offline ai education devices for communities without internet, starting in south sudan. it was founded by my friend didi ding mayen kuai, a babson freshman from bor. she passed away unexpectedly in march of 2024, a few days after we put together the first gofundme. i took over to carry her mission forward.
this year, letallgirls won the u.s. and north american championships at the global student entrepreneur awards. in july, i represent the u.s. at the global finals in south africa.
my favourite thing in the world is my dog.
i like him because he is funny and we share many hobbies like music and sports.
i was captain of my high school soccer team and we won two rings. i started designing clothes when i was twelve and ran an e-commerce brand called dirtbrokeworld until covid killed it. before that, when i was in middle school, my best friend and i sold pink hoodies in the school hallways to raise money for breast cancer awareness. our dean shut it down. a few weeks later we learned he'd been diagnosed himself. every dollar we raised went to his gofundme. that's the first time i remember caring about building things that mattered.
