Jordan McRae ’05 was scuba diving off the coast of Mozambique many years ago when he started having trouble with his regulator. Unable to breathe effectively, he signaled to a fellow diver for help—but his companion didn’t understand and ended up making the situation worse. “I didn’t die, but I was pretty scared,” McRae says.
The experience inspired McRae to seek a technical solution to the problem of communicating in challenging audio environments. Today he is the founder and CEO of Mobilus Labs, a startup commercializing a voice communication platform that works wherever it is hard to hear.
