The tech career of Meetesh Karia started early, as his father was an electrical engineer bringing home a TRS80 with a tape drive. Computers just clicked, as he dialed into BBS systems, built computers installed with Slackware & Linux. Early on, he also dabbled in AI (is that even a thing?), building neural networks to predict weather patterns.

He has played competitive sports for years - in fact, he has won a national championship in the masters division of ultimate frisbee (and met his wife playing the sport as well). He bases a lot of his leadership philosophy in tech around what he has learned from sports. Self proclaimed - he's one of those people that can't just sit still.

In January 2013, he was approached to create and own the technology and team around a product that allowed people to compare insurance providers - from scratch. Meetesh made the decision to onboard and started the journey to build the Zebra.
