"When I was walking alone one night, I noticed a girl walking in the same direction as me maybe 50 feet ahead. When she heard my footsteps, I noticed she got nervous and started walking faster. I began working to amend this by asking women what men can do to make them feel safer. Realizing that reaching men with this message would be difficult, I started researching self defense technology. Realizing the lack of innovation in that field, I decided to do what I could to build a better, safer option"

We are revolutionizing self defense technology and bringing modern technology into the field of personal safety. Unlike current devices, our products are more intuitive and ergonomic, allowing people to use these devices in high stress, high intensity situations. Our embedded tech allows for a more diverse field of applications for our devices, bringing an all-in-one aspect into our design for maximum safety.

Pepper spray's design is outdated. Given it's current cylindrical shape, it is very common that people need to look at the nozzle in order to properly aim it, which requires time and awareness that many don't have in the situations when they need it most. Additionally, the way most of these devices are made to be held is not secure and can allow assailants to disarm the victim with relative ease. For this reason and many more, I have revised this design to make it more ergonomic and easier to use when under pressure as well as add modern technology in order to take self defense into the future.
