ABOUT EMBER PROTECT
When the Palisades Fire burned through parts of Los Angeles, it felt personal. Seeing the streets I had once walked through burned to the ground made me realize how real and immediate the threat of wildfire destruction truly is, especially as their total damage continues to grow year after year.
Through educational resources and outreach, I aim to help people understand the practical steps that can reduce wildfire risk, including defensible space creation, vegetation management, and home hardening strategies, as described by FireWise USA and the National Fire Protection Agency.
Currently, I have developed a fully functional commercial grade prototype for my EmberGuard sensor, and I am actively testing the device. Further, my sensor detects wildfires earlier than traditional observation methods as many begin as small smoldering events.
By combining wildfire education and active prevention with early detection, I strive to create more resilient landscapes and communities.
