A Seattle-based tech Founder and AI Engineer building applied AI-native startups, exploring all GenAI modalities, and sharing my discoveries along the way.
As CTO & Co-Founder of Snapbar, I'm leading the transformation of event marketing and photography through our platform of AI-native apps, trusted by Disney, Nike, Coca-Cola, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, FIFA, and hundreds of other brands. Named to Forbes 30 Under 30 Seattle in 2023, I've built multiple successful startups, including DubHacks (the PNW's largest collegiate hackathon), have pioneered AI-driven products that have generated over 8 figures in revenue at Snapbar, and have helped scale multiple VC-backed early stage startups in San Francisco and Seattle (as an Engineer) that have gone on to acquisition.
I'm helping software engineers and early stage founders become AI-native on my YouTube channel, along with toolkits/articles published on patrickellis.io. I hope you find them helpful!
