I was a guest on My Stuttering Life podcast — we talked about using technology as a backup plan Hey everyone. Some of you might know Pedro Pena's podcast My Stuttering Life. I was recently on the show talking about my experience with stuttering and spasmodic dysphonia, and an app I built called Vocal Proxy. The episode is called "Fighting Back with Technology: Let's Build a Voice Together" and it's available on all major podcast platforms now. The app came from my own frustration as a person who stutters. I wanted a way to prepare for conversations in advance — not to replace speaking, but to have a backup when things aren't going well. It has preset phrases you can show on screen, and an AI feature that generates scripts for specific situations like appointments or phone calls.

But if you're curious, the episode goes into a lot more detail about the thinking behind it.
