Hey, I'm Shaan.

I'm currently building Whiten, an app designed to help people build and maintain consistent daily oral-hygiene routines. I'm interested in consumer psychology, habit formation, and building products that make small daily behaviors stick.

Previously I founded Data Powered Sports, +EV betting software across Daily Fantasy Sports apps. We partnered with Sleeper Fantasy and bootstrapped the product while I was in college, reaching 6k users and 350 paid monthly subscribers.

I graduated from Bellarmine College Prep in San Jose and studied finance at Purdue University. Spent some time at Fountane helping pre-seed startups raise rounds. Also ran and built socials for a Twitch streamer (top 20 in global popularity, top 3 in Just Chatting).

These days I'm getting more into UFC and Premier League games (slowly becoming a Manchester United fan). I also oddly enjoy watching mukbangers eat fast food. In the past I've enjoyed running, asserting dominance in Clash Royale, and playing the drums. My favorite pokemon is Totodile.
