Hi, I'm Umit. I've spent the last few years building software, most of it inside startups, and a handful of the products I've worked on have reached over a hundred thousand people. Among my favorites are Spoken AI Spoken AI for fearless English speaking andVegpalVegpal for the vegan community. These days my focus is on voice AI, generative AI, and agents.

I love building the Silicon Valley way: shipping early and learning fast. I also sharpened that craft on bigger teams, including time atVolvoVolvo. And before code took over, I told stories onTikTokTikTok and reached nearly ten million views, learning how good storytelling turns attention into something people genuinely care about.

Let's build
something
together.
