When I launched Jean Criss Media, I joined an incubator program and discovered success isn’t just about product design or promotion—it’s about purpose and the people we empower. That insight guides my work across multimedia production, inclusive digital innovation, sustainable post-surgical fashion, wearable and immersive technologies. My inspiration is creating digital solutions that uplift communities, offering preventive measures and accelerating healing beyond the norm.

I stay motivated by focusing on purpose and following trends and emerging tech. Each project—whether in media, technology, or design—begins with a challenge but grows through curiosity, collaboration, and resilience. Driving progress in women’s health through innovation, greater access, and community empowerment is what inspires me to build. That impact motivates me to turn adversity into purposeful solutions—embracing risk with intention, living fearlessly by design.

I would invest $25,000 in R&D and scaling my patented CRISSCROSS brands, JeanetiX and Pink Skins. Funding will support prototyping, testing, and tech integration while strengthening production and market readiness. My focus is accelerating MedTech and gaming solutions in preventive and post-surgical care through innovative wearables that support women’s healing, expand access, and deliver contemporary, inclusive, purpose-driven design.
