Leveraging my engineering background, my sewing and design skills, and my experience as a nursing mother (and with the help of my 1 year old son, who spent the entire hackathon in a baby carrier on my back!), my team of 12 parents, engineers, and medical professionals created a functional prototype of a wearable and discreet "smart pump" for breastfeeding parents to use on-the-go with automated data collection, automated shut-off to avoid spills, "zip tube" hardware for easy cleaning and adaptable placement on the body, and a stylish utility belt so it can be used anywhere at any time.
