Unify started with a simple question:
Why is it so hard to make friends in college after your first year?

As a student at the University of New England, I kept seeing the same thing — students who wanted to connect, get involved, and feel like they belonged, but didn’t always know how or where to start. Between academics, jobs, and everyday life, meaningful relationships often felt like they happened by luck, not by design.

I created Unify to change that.
Not as a tech project, but as a mission: to help students feel seen, supported, and connected in a way that actually fits their lives.

Unify gives students a space to build community through shared interests, not just formal clubs or occasional events. It's designed to make belonging easier, and to give colleges the insight they need to support student engagement and retention in real time.

We piloted our BETA version at UNE, and I’m incredibly grateful to have started this journey at the place where the idea was born. As a recent grad, a first-time founder, and a young woman in business, this is more than just a platform. It’s the beginning of a new way to build connection on campus , and we’re just getting started.
