AJ Patel is a seasoned entrepreneur, having founded six businesses, each inspired by personal challenges. Passionate about taking companies from inception to nine figures, AJ's ventures range from healthful low-sugar snacks to functional treats for pets, a nod to his Goldendoodle and testament to his #dogdad pride.
