Joshua Voydik
I’m a technology entrepreneur, previously Swell, and now currently working on a new project in AI. I spend much of my time building new tools, training and finetuning models, and podcasting with smart people.
As an advisor and consultant, I help companies grow revenue with product strategy, partnerships, and GTM motions. Recent work includes partnering with teenage engineering, Austin Evans, Sony, and Tim Ferriss.
