Raj spent 20 years building technology for Accenture, Honeywell, and Bank of America. Then he looked up at the stars and decided to build something for the community.
He filed his own H1B through his C-Corp. Got denied. Refiled. Got approved. Now he’s building BortleBuddy, an AI-powered astrophotography app.
In this episode:
How he went from slamming his desk to filing his own petition
The denial, the refile, and what his attorney did differently the second time
Why he says “if you need innovation, you need freedom”
The 70/30 role split under the modernization rule
His advice: spend $500 on a real attorney, not $0 on Facebook opinions
