Strive Group, LLC

StrivePD, from the Strive Group, is a mobile and voice app designed with and for people with Parkinson's who strive to live fully. The concept for StrivePD grew out of personal experience. Cofounder Aura Oslapas has been living with PD for six years. Being highly sensitive to medications, she began to experience side effects early on, and found existing tools cumbersome and inadequate, or geared towards observational studies. Conversations with fellow PWPs and Movement Disorder Specialists confirmed her suspicion that many others could benefit from a better way to manage and learn from the interplay of symptoms, medications, side effects and other influences. This inspired her to create a patient-centric app that would make logging and tracking easy, and could generate personal insights that could also be shared with doctors, family, and other care givers. Knowledge is empowering. Self-empowerment keeps us striving.
