Morris Richman
Hey I’m Morris, a CS B.S. student at UC Santa Cruz who loves turning random ideas into reality! Driven by the love of the game, I thrive on building tools and exploring the depths of cybersecurity research. After hosting hackathons and seeing first-hand the friction in manual judging, I teamed up with Cyrus to build Hillpost. Whether it's reverse-engineering a new piece of software or shipping platforms that bring communities together, I'm always looking for the next challenge!
Cyrus Correll
Hey I’m Cyrus, a CSE M.S. student at UC Santa Cruz who loves building! I specialize in AI for small biz development but tackle projects across a variety of areas, from biomedical engineering to real estate. Hackathons fuel the pursuit of innovation in a way that’s second to none, which is why I built Hillpost alongside Morris. Together we’ve hosted hackathons in SF with over 300 hackers and $1M+ in aggregate sponsorship, and we knew the judging process needed fixing. Happy building, I hope to see you at an event soon!
