Tanu Chawla Wadhwa
I make AI actually work inside large organizations — the messy end-to-end reality, from architecture to adoption. Fifteen years across engineering, consulting, and enterprise transformation; currently building agentic systems by hand.
on the work
CS undergrad, MBA in Strategy & Marketing from the Indian School of Business. Fifteen-plus years across engineering, strategy consulting, and enterprise transformation: early roles at Infosys and Accenture, strategy work at Cognizant with clients like J&J and Goldman Sachs, then building AI programs from the inside at Herbalife and Amway. Currently on a deliberate career break focused on family, health, and hands-on AI practice, spending my time building and deploying agentic AI systems myself.
speaking on ai
A public voice on AI governance and enterprise transformation since 2018, before it was mainstream.
selected work
Herbalife AI Center of Excellence
Built Herbalife’s first AI CoE from scratch: no team, no playbook, no dedicated budget. Ran cross-business-unit discovery, picked infrastructure to skip a 6-month approval fight, and structured a contractor + internal-volunteer team with knowledge transfer built in.
Amway Content Ecosystem & AI Enablement
Diagnosed a broken content supply chain across 100+ markets — the real bottleneck was metadata, not storage. Built an AI semantic search layer instead of migrating to a single DAM.
LLM/RAG Translation Engine
Owned delivery for an LLM/RAG-based translation system: vendor coordination, acceptance criteria, and production launch, from plan to live rollout.
Micro-Retirement Workspace
A single-file PWA I designed, built, and use daily: habits, deep work, learning, and family time in one place, feeding an auto-generated monthly retrospective that surfaces real patterns instead of vanity metrics.
Swim School Multi-Agent System
Orchestrator + four worker agents (scheduling, comms, payments, reporting) running a real small business, built for a non-technical instructor with human approval gates on every irreversible action.
Personal Investment Income System
An experiment in generating consistent monthly income from a fixed capital pool through documented, rule-based trading, backed by an AI system that logs every trade and flags rule violations before they compound.
