Hi, I'm Mitch

As one of two founding members of LifeBac – an online drinking treatment program – I’ve spent four years raising over $2M and building our concept into a platform that now supports hundreds of members across 8 states. My responsibilities at LifeBac include:

• Design all graphics, including the company & app logos, marketing & coaching materials, and training content
• Create all investor materials (excluding financials) for each funding round, totaling $2,000,000 raised to date
• Redesign the outdated website (e.g. lifebac.com/redesign); maintain & update the app and web portal
• Write engaging content for app modules, the website, internal training guides, and investor communications
• Produce all video & animation for advertisements, tutorials, intro videos, and organic content generation

Transformed basic ideas from four clients with no web design experience into modern, functional online interfaces.

Collaborated with PhD students at ETH Zürich’s Institute of Neuroinformatics on coding various small projects in neuromorphic computing & machine vision. Mentored by Julien Martel, Turlough Neary, and Professor Matt Cook

Developed a Python application to analyze & compare processing pipelines for Kelper K2 mission data. Worked directly under Professor Tim Bedding with his PhD group at the Sydney University’s Institute for Astronomy.

Extracurricular

The Medallion Program educates student leaders by providing opportunities for intentional learning, self-reflection, and skill development. Students enrolled in the Medallion Program gain a strong sense of self-awareness, work effectively with others, and become civically and socially engaged. I joined the Medallion Program to hone my leadership skills and meet like-minded student peers.

As a trained ECM Technician, I set up, ran, and troubleshooted campus events like academic conferences, student performances, and Meliora Weekend festivities.

My personal website, which houses a gallery of some of my favorite major and minor projects.

With a project centered around the health, safety, and comfort of children during disaster relief, I led my 4-person team to win the Choate Rothberg Catalyzer and advance to compete as the only high school team against Yale, Brown, Carnegie Mellon, and the University of Pennsylvania. Our project, taking the form of a children’s toy, incorporates biomedical data sensors and feedback to assess and aid the physical and mental health of children and adolescents affected by major disasters.

The official web wallet for the cryptocurrency Locke (deprecated), a tiny crypto start-up from 2017 that didn't survive the market crashes since. While lockepocket.com is now also obsolete, I used its core code to post an ERC-20 web wallet template to GitHub that's been forked by a few to make sleek, responsive, and simple ERC-20 token web wallets of their own.

FUSION is AFWERX's flagship yearly two-day event hosted jointly by the United States Air Force and AFWERX. 120 teams showcased their technological solutions to Air Force leadership and other military executives. As a volunteer, I supervised the entrance to the main showfloor and provided general assistance wherever necessary.
