Statement
Hi my name is Kiarra Byrd and for my capstone project I created Blink, a women's safety app.
Safety isn’t just about emergencies; it’s about empowerment and preparedness. Imagine a tool that not only helps you navigate potential risks but also gives you peace of mind wherever you go. Blink isn’t just an app—it’s a partner in safety. Tonight, I’ll walk you through how Blink addresses real-world challenges with practical, user-centered solutions.
Problem Statement:
Women often encounter situations where their safety feels compromised, yet these scenarios do not warrant police intervention, leaving them with limited options to address their discomfort or potential risks effectively. There is a need for accessible tools that empower women to de-escalate situations and take proactive measures to ensure their safety while remaining in control.
