I know what’s right and you can count on me to be out there in the fight for it. I’m a Chicano kid from Arizona. My whole family works in the trades and I grew up working hard and being hard en la frontera. First of my family to go to college and all that. When the chance to work low-bono with United We Dream on an app to help protect immigrants, I put my chops to work for the good.
Notifica is an app that helps immigrants defend themselves from ICE and deportation. If a human is about to encounter ICE, they can deploy encrypted prewritten messages to loved ones and local immigrant advocacy groups to call for help, then wipes itself clean. I worked to develop the voice, UX, and wrote the app.
Wired, Rolling Stone, Fast Company, and Mashable wrote about our work.
