Hey, I'm Emmanuel.
In my career I've worn lots of hats: AI engineer, software engineer (there is a bit of a difference), blockchain engineer, all the way to CTO of a venture-backed startup.
Now I'm bringing it all together and applying it to the businesses back home.
2019
Started at 18 (yes, I was born in 2001)
COVID closed every job in town, so I taught myself web development and started freelancing. First client at $15 an hour. I've been building for people ever since.
2022
Rose to tech lead
I joined a tech company as the newest engineer on the team. Within a year, I was leading it. When something needed to get built, I was the one who did it, and real people were using what I made.
2024
Became a CTO
My brother and I started our own company, and investors put real money behind us. As CTO, I built the entire product myself, and that meant building the AI inside it: teaching it to think correctly, pull the right information, and answer questions plainly, the same way AI search does today. I know how it works because I built it from under the hood.
Now
Bringing it all together
Queso Ventures is where all of it lands. Enterprise grade technology for the businesses in my own backyard, serving owners across the Houston area. The big companies already have engineers like me. The businesses that actually matter, the ones down the street, deserve one too.
Why Queso Ventures exists
Every big brand has a team of engineers making sure you find them first.
The shops that keep Houston running do not. AI is changing how customers find businesses, and most agencies are still selling the old playbook. I helped build the new tools, so I know the new rules. Queso Ventures brings that edge to local businesses for $300 a month. I'll come see your store in person, and when you reach out, it's me who answers.
