About
Hey, I'm Nitesh. I'm the founder of OgalAI Labs, an app development studio, and an IT Solution Manager at Nobull Strategies LLC in the USA.
I've worked across WordPress development, Scrum project management, team leadership and IT infrastructure, from freelance theme builds to leading Zournaly, a journaling platform, from concept to launch.
I'm not only someone who writes code. I can understand an idea, turn it into a roadmap, build and lead the team behind it, build features myself when needed, and help bring products to launch.
