About Me

GeneralProofCurrently

Will Zou

I'm trying to make a positive impact with AI, specifically by getting it implemented well inside enterprises.

Registered to: Purdue AI, first cohort
Now: SDR, starting October 2026

The short version

Purdue University: Artificial Intelligence major from the College of Liberal Arts, focused on the philosophy of AI and machine learning classes
Sales experience: insurance, startups, clubs, and now an SDR
Now: focused on AI implementation in enterprise environments, across the full stack of hardware and software

Why is technology important to me?

Technology is advancing fast, and I believe in people using it for good and positive change. That means keeping the focus on human-to-human interaction, speaking confidently about what you believe in, and using the tools around you to make everyone's lives easier or better.

What I want to be known for

Someone people trust. When a problem needs solving, I use creativity to communicate the answer.

01Data Science at Purdue

I started in Data Science. I wanted to use machine learning to grow businesses, worked through Andrew Ng's Coursera courses, and fell in love with prediction and massive amounts of data.

The Data MineDr. Ward

022024: I switched to AI

I was using ChatGPT to write code for my classes. Right then, Purdue opened a new set of AI majors. I picked the one in Liberal Arts, which technically sits in the Philosophy department.

03Mind + body

The degree was half philosophy, half computer science: the full stack, plus the mind-and-body question Descartes wrote about. My favorite part was thinking about what this technology was doing for me: how I could use it to study better, and the ways I could put it to work in my side hustles.

04Sales internships

I started in Medicare telesales, where I won an internal pitch competition with a data-driven outreach strategy built on customer segmentation. Then I led an AI pilot inside an insurance brokerage, training managers and executives on Copilot agents and writing the playbooks teams used to adopt them.

05A seed-stage startup

On a six-person founding team, I wore every hat: go-to-market research, cold calling and outreach to CPA firms, CRM engineering, and QA on the core app. I wrote the sales playbooks and demo scripts and sat in on daily engineering standups.

06RADcube

As a sales associate intern, I built an AI research pipeline from scratch that sourced up to 1,000 new leads a week, and mapped pharma buying committees of 10 to 15 people. I also set up a Notion MCP knowledge base for sales and marketing and trained the team on AI-assisted selling.
