Joseph: My motivation was sparked when my younger brother was in a near fatal car accident and did not have health insurance. The financial ramifications for our family would have been devastating if we hadn't found a way to get insurance to cover him retroactively. We don't want this to happen to anyone else.
Natalie: Empathy is the ability to understand and feel what other people are feeling. At Translator, we do this by helping people become more self-aware through anonymous, technology-based exercises. These “learning experiences” are designed to help people first reflect on their own identity and lived experiences so that they are then ready to learn about other people. Without self-awareness, people cannot have empathy. And that is what we do!
