01 / ABOUT

Built on experience.
Driven by curiosity.

A long technology journey shaped by building products, platforms, teams and ideas across multiple industries.

Let’s exchange ideas

I have spent more than three decades in technology across engineering, product strategy, enterprise architecture, IT operations and leadership. My experience spans organizations and domains including healthcare, banking and financial services, consumer products, utilities, smart cities and digital platforms.

Today, I continue to explore AI, data, software architecture and personal technology projects. VengaManga is where I bring together my technical writing, experiments, open-source work and ideas such as the Personal Digital Life OS — my exploration of a long-term AI-powered Second Brain.

PERSONAL AI RESEARCH

What if AI could
remember a life?

The Personal Digital Life OS

The Personal Digital Life OS — my Second Brain project — explores whether AI can become a trusted, long-term digital memory of a person's life. The concept brings together personal memory, documents, messages, photos, workflows, reminders, home systems and specialist agents while preserving evidence, access control and user ownership.

This is currently a personal research and development project. Public registration is not enabled yet.

01

Memory

Personal context.
Long-term continuity.

02

Evidence

Grounded knowledge.
Traceable sources.

03

Ownership

Your data.
Your control.

A second brain. Built around you.

05 / LET’S CONNECT

Good ideas start
with a conversation.

I am always interested in exchanging ideas around technology, architecture, AI, data and the Personal Digital Life OS.
