Organization Leaders
Jodi Murray
Founder and Managing Director
A professional multitasker, Jodi brings Created for Crisis together. Like so many of us, she was appalled by the supply shortages faced by medical professionals, and helped turn an online community into an organized team of innovators.
She has over a decade of IT experience, including healthcare IT, and has spent the last eight years working directly with nonprofits as well as using her skills in project management, solutions architecture, and people wrangling. Her time as an EMT and volunteer firefighter allows her to empathize with those on the front lines of this crisis, and she cares for them even as she takes care of her young family in North Carolina.
Collin Stiers
Founder and Engineering Lead
Helping others shapes every aspect of Collin’s life. In addition to his dedication to the Army ROTC program, he mentors a highschool robotics team, and spends his remaining free time working with the Civil Air Patrol as a search and rescue instructor, teaching kids and serving others. And serving others is why he’s here.

Ryan McKenna
Head of Web Design & Engineering
I'm a transplant from Denver, CO to Charlotte, NC. I am passionate about art, living in the moment and the constant strive to learn. I chose to learn how to code so that I could realize my own dreams and aspirations in a medium that I grew up on. Over time I realized that all I wanted to do was create new and amazing applications with great people and a little experimentation.
