Our Wave is a nonprofit startup focused on empowering survivors of sexual assault. We seek to decrease the prevalence of assault and create a world where survivors are believed and supported. In 2019, Our Wave launched an online platform for survivors to share stories, receive customized support, and join a community of understanding. While collecting stories and tagged data, we hope to highlight the prevalence of sexual assault and determine patterns for future prevention. As Chief Technology Officer, I develop and manage our platform, security infrastructure, and data initiatives, and work to ensure our technology is as welcoming as possible for our users.

SmartTrack transforms the way organizations track assets, manage inventory, and save money. The SmartTrack team came together around a simple philosophy: a zip code should not determine the quality of a child’s education. This philosophy took us down an unusual path for fixing a deeply rooted problem in our education sector.Schools need their resources to provide an excellent education for our children. These resources include textbooks, technology, musical instruments, curriculum materials, and more. Through our own experiences as teachers and educators, we’ve experienced first-hand how difficult it is to keep track of these assets.We believe that our solution is able to successfully solve these issues. It was developed and refined through countless meetings with educators, administrators, and over multiple rounds of tech competitions. In testing our design, we saw a five times increase in inventory speed using our app versus the traditional pen and paper method.SmartTrack is currently being used successfully as the inventory system across the Camden, NJ school district. It has also been featured in Governing Magazine, PennCurrent, Fels Institute of Government, Penn's Science and Diplomacy Group, and Technical.ly.
