TurnSignl Founders Jazz Hampton, Andre Creighton, Mychal Frelix

They were the right founders, with the right idea, at a time it was needed most. TurnSignl debuted to big accolades; now two years in, how are the founders handling the pressure while continuing to scale?

"There was no one better positioned to build a solution than the three of us," says Jazz Hampton, co-founder and CEO of TurnSignl, a tech platform that provides on demand legal advice to drivers with the goal of deescalating police interactions and ensuring that everyone "gets home safe."

"I spoke on so many panels," says Hampton," But it wasn't enough. I felt guilt as a Black lawyer in [Minneapolis] representing large companies. There were so many more opportunities to use this degree in a way that could help people."

"In the same way people say 'I Ubered home,' we want people to say, I was pulled over, but I used TurnSignl," Hampton says. Adds Creighton, "it's the want that everyone has: to get home safe."
