Goals

US.Watch aims to revolutionize public engagement in the search for missing or endangered children by transforming AMBER Alerts into actionable, community-driven missions. By creating a platform where local communities are empowered to participate in real-time searches, we significantly increase the chance of finding and rescuing missing or endangered children. I helped US.Watch in their mission by helping create marketing materials, a Discord community with all-included, and a new website UX and UI overhaul.
