Purpose & Mission
A Bit About Boring Sage Method
Learning new technology takes time, effort, and grit. While this journey can be painful and challenging, it doesn’t have to be. That’s where Boring Sage comes in. We empower students to master emerging technologies through our principles-based approach—The Boring Sage Method.
Our goal is to help you understand the core principles in a way that saves you time, energy, and capital—time you would otherwise spend figuring out what to study, how much to study, and where to study each of these domains. We help you understand the big-picture overview of your domain—what matters, why it matters, and where to apply it.
Here’s how we do it:
-
Simplify – Distill complex ideas into core principles.
-
See the Big Picture – Understand how key components connect.
-
Learn by Doing – Work on hands-on projects, not just theory.
-
Real-World Case Studies – Learn how these principles apply in the real world.
-
Certify – Validate your understanding through structured assessments.
This is an initiative to help those in the early stages of their professional journey. While these courses are not designed to turn you into an expert overnight, they will help you grasp the principles you need and build a strong foundation in your field.
Our mission is simple: to make learning accessible, understandable, and actionable—so you can make a meaningful impact in your field.

Hello
A Bit About the Founder of Boring Sage
Change isn't just a part of life; it's the heart of technology. Starting my career in telecom and establishing footprints in diverse technology domains such as computer networks, software systems, robotics, AI in less than a decade meant pivoting faster than a high-speed server.
This journey wasn't just about changing lanes; it was about adapting at a pace as fast as the technology itself. The key to this rapid adaptation? Simplifying technology to make it not just understandable, but actionable and efficient.
That's when it hit me. If I'm doing this for myself, why not help others? And just like that, BoringSage was no longer a 'maybe' – it became a 'must'.
My name is Prathamesh, and I’m a technologist & educator with a rich background in AI, Robotics, FinTech, and Computer Networking. I have designed mission-critical engineering systems for both government and private organizations during my time at Motorola Solutions & Silicon Valley Startup, Cobalt Robotics. Some of my clients include governments of the US & UK, Dutch Telecom Giant KPN, EMD Merck, Ally Financial, Citi, Northern Trust, Verizon, Slack, Doordash, General Motors, Yelp, VMWare, and the largest e-commerce company in the world.
I love to simplify technology for students and professionals around the world through my courses, guest lectures, and publications. I am grateful to the 80,000+ students from 150+ countries who have found these courses valuable.
When I am not building courses, I enjoy writing Op-Eds, helping startups, and conducting guest talks on emerging technologies. Some of my recent guest lectures were hosted at University of Westminster, University of Chicago, San Diego State University, Texas A&M University, American University Dubai, and more. My work has been published in the San Diego Union Tribune, American Banker, LinkedIn, Route 50, and Security Magazine. I received my MS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Southern California and my BS in Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering from the University of Mumbai.
My vision is to leverage my 10+ years of corporate and startup experience to foster innovation and help organizations address challenges in critical sectors — banking, healthcare, insurance, and public safety—using emerging technologies. By bringing real-life experience into the startup community and academia, I hope to spark more fires in the hearts of young tech enthusiasts and empower them to solve emerging social challenges through the power of technology.
