Ashish, AppDiscover's passionate visionary, is a technology veteran with entrepreneurship in his DNA. A self-described “iPhone junkie”, he is rumored to have well over 150 apps on his phone. How does he do it? Well ... that was the genesis for AppDiscover — to find only the best apps for himself and his friends. Prior to launching AppDiscover he spent over thirteen years in senior product management and development roles at Sharpcast/SugarSync, Oracle, and Oblix. He holds an MBA from Wharton and a MS from IIT Bombay, and in his spare time (er ... when he has spare time) he loves to hack, build consumer products, and spend time with his baby daughter.

Beorn is AppDiscover's resident scalable software guru. His days are spent peering at Xcode to cook up new twists on collaborative filtering and managing the rest of the development team, which suits him just fine. He has over fifteen years of experience developing software systems at Gemini Mobile, Oblix, and U.C. Berkeley. He has a BS in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from U.C. Berkeley, and is a master at throwing clay pots when not in front of his computer.

Michael, AppDiscover's marketing maven, loves to build great products and great companies. He has spent the last ten years in strategy consulting, marketing, and business development for leading technology firms. He's worked for Apple and a groundbreaking Internet startup at the American Museum of Natural History, and has advised a number of startups and Fortune 500s. He has an MBA from Wharton and a BA and MA from Stanford. When not designing and launching marketing campaigns he can be found trail running and lindy hopping, usually not at the same time.

Vinayak, AppDiscover's business development guru, is passionate about carving a niche for companies with superior products. In the last ten years he has worked in engineering, product development, business development, and strategy consulting. He has worked for Motorola, an avionics startup, and as a strategy consultant to several large companies in the aviation space. He has an MBA from Wharton and a Bachelors in Engineering from Bombay University. In his spare time, he's busy pursuing his passion in aviation.
