- Jessie Garcia, the founder of Tozuda and inventor of the Cabezon, the first head injury awareness sensor developed specifically for the labor and construction industry.
- Markevis Gideon, the creator of Nerdit NOW, a 2016 University of Delaware Hen Hatch Alumni award-winning information technology company that serves individuals and small businesses to have their very own “NERD T. Guy”.
