CVX is the name I use for my freelance work. I have developed several civic engagement focused apps along with mobile AR experiences. Examples include: CVX (Ci-Vi-Cs): A simple data aggregation app built with Swift and Android Java. CVX gives users easy, instant access to relevant, actionable government information. For instance, users can enter in their street address and get direct contact information for their elected officials, they can track legislation currently being considered in their city halls and state houses, and I even added image recognition functionality where users could take a picture of a member of Congress and instantly see who they are. ActionBook: A Pinterest-like social media app where users can post news stories they see online and other users can upvote, downvote, and comment on those stories.
