Meet The Founders
Freddie Ghahremani
Freddie bridges the gap most advisors talk about, but few can deliver on: where business strategy meets the technical reality of data and AI. As a consultant, he has spent his career architecting and building data platforms and analytics solutions — not just recommending them. He's also sat on the other side of the table, as part of data leadership teams living with the consequences of those decisions daily. At Hooshr, this dual vantage point shapes everything: he doesn't just advise organisations on their data and AI strategy, he builds the platforms that make it real — with recent depth in Life Insurance and Financial services, where regulatory complexity leaves no room for solutions that don't hold up under scrutiny.
