Sachin is a Senior Software Engineer who spends his days wrangling Golang, AWS, Kubernetes, and the occasional Friday deployment he immediately regrets. He’s built and scaled backend systems for teams that like their platforms fast, reliable, and (mostly) drama-free.

Over the years, he’s worked on everything from multi-tenant migrations and CI/CD pipelines that actually behave, to backend services that don’t wake him up at 3 AM. He loves clean architecture, simple solutions to messy problems, and developers who write good commit messages.

When Sachin isn't deep in code, you’ll find him experimenting with side projects, helping teammates level up, or trying (and failing) to keep his local dev environment perfectly organized.

You need a speaker who doesn’t just hold attention-but electrifies a room. That’s me. I’m Karis Gill, multi–award-winning founder, storytelling strategies, and the go-to speaker for businesses ready to harness the neuroscience of storytelling to drive real action.

With over 100 high-impact workshops and keynotes delivered across industries, I bring high energy, sharp humour, and strategies that stick. My sessions are known for getting audiences laughing, scribbling furious notes, and walking away saying: “Why has no one taught us this before?”

Because no one teaches you how to sell, lead, or pitch through story. That’s where I come in. I show you the neuroscience and how the brain is wired for story, why decision-makers buy with emotion, not logic- and how to craft business stories that move people. This isn’t fluffy theory. It’s science-backed storytelling that gives your team an unfair advantage.

As a founder, I’ve generated multi–seven-figure revenues over the last 5 years, using the exact storytelling principles I now teach. Whether I’m delivering a keynote to thousands or running an intimate workshop for your team, my goal is the same: to make you better at storytelling than 99% of people you’ll ever meet.

If you're ready to stop sounding like everyone else and start speaking in a way that connects, converts, and compels- let’s talk.
