 Core Team

These are the people of the TrustTheVote® Project Core Team. These are our top technologists — computer scientists, system architects, software, systems, network and web engineers, and code developers — working in the trenches on the front lines of democracy for the good of the public interest in free, fair, and trustworthy elections. 

Their accomplishment and achievement make them members of the inner core of the larger TrustTheVote Project technology and development community. They hold the “commit” keys to the curated code bases and core projects, such as ElectOS.

The commitment and passion for democracy expressed through the ingenuity and talents of these individuals is what qualifies them as members of the elite Core Team.
