Company Summary
Pilleve is taking on prescription opioid abuse and addiction, a $500B crisis in America that has already claimed 70,000 lives, and continues to get scarier. Pilleve's solution is a secure pill bottle and software that prevents unauthorized or over use, tracks usage data, and shares it with physicians. This prevents misuse, increases compliance, and most importantly, is the only way to identify at-risk patients before they are addicted.
Team

Cofounder
I struggled with substance abuse growing up and overcame it through early intervention which is at the crux of our start up's solution. Through my experiences, I understand the role technology can play to prevent it.
I have a passion for social impact. I have worked for firms, both for and non profit that promote access to wealth, health, and resources in the past (Synergos & Bab rizk Jameel).
I graduated with a BA from Wake Forest University. -
Cofounder & CTO
Many members of my family have been plagued by alcoholism--so much so that I have never touched it. I understand how far-reaching the effects of substance abuse are and want to use my technical background in biomedical and electrical engineering to provide any support that I can. As a designer, I am constantly listening and soaking in how we interact with our surroundings, so our goal is to make medication really work for all of us.
