Hey there, I'm Rishi Ishairzay

I'm a product manager and software developer in Brooklyn, NY.

Nowadays I'm building an AI-powered tool for thought at Good Wording.

In my personal life, I'm drawn to psychology, evolution, nature, cycling, space, improv, yoga, and likely other things by now. I have roots in Virginia, San Francisco, and now Brooklyn. My friends and family mean everything to me.

In my career, I've been a founder (3x), product manager, distributed systems engineer, front-end engineer (web & iOS), and many things in between. My more notable accomplishments are a 9-year stint at Twitter, bootstrapping a profitable startup with ~200K users, and ignoring a cease-and-desist from Activision.

I build beautiful products that help people understand themselves, connect with others, explore their curiosity, and have fun along the way. In other words, the products I wish existed.
