  • Lindsay has spent her career working in outpatient adult and pediatric PT, as well as school-based PT. Her work in those environments inspired her to found Augment Therapy in 2017 with the goal of improving the therapy experience for children and bringing increased innovation to the pediatric market.

    In 2019, she was named by Crain's as a "Most Notable Woman in Technology," and a "Homegrown Hero" by Cleveland.com.

    Her favorite Augment Therapy game is Puddle Jumper because she loves the Augmented Reality water effect created during the exercise.

    Lindsay loves her work at Augment Therapy because of the incredible team surrounding her, and the exciting stories she hears about the patients using the solution.


  • Steve’s career in the tech industry has spanned over 30 years, including 8 years focused primarily on creating literacy software and animated content for children with Lexia Learning Systems. He also has previous experience working in the medical technology sector, as he was the Senior Developer of MedActionPlan.com and MyMedSchedule.com for 12 years.

    Steve’s work as a software developer is supplemented by his background in music composition which he uses to facilitate engagement, particularly in software meant for children. Steve is passionate about motivating children through music and believes that kids aren’t given enough credit for their open and sophisticated musical taste – he has found that even the youngest children respond positively to “classical” music and instruments and are fascinated by music from different cultures.

    For example, after meeting with a few therapists, she realized our Single Limb Stance exercise was frustrating to them as it didn’t quite work the way they needed it to.

    “We brainstormed some solutions as a team, and then our CTO spent a weekend implementing a new way of tracking that improved the entire app. Every time I see that exercise, I think about how we listened to our users, worked together to develop solutions, and successfully solved the problem.”


  • Wayne has a long-established career providing technical support in both hardware and software environments. Before joining the Augment Therapy team, he was a Team leader for one of the world’s largest drug and pharmaceutical companies, where he was tasked with the training of all remote support technicians in a rapidly growing virtual environment.

I decided to pursue this career to work on applications that could make the world more fun and interesting.”

  • Dawud’s personal experiences inspired him to pursue a Rehabilitation Engineering major at Cleveland State University: “For as long as I could remember, I knew I wanted to bring or restore ability to those who have limited physical ability. You could say I have somewhat of a personal investment in this mission, having been born with cerebral palsy. My spark and motivation: To give people, and especially kids, a better quality of life through research and development of advanced technology/devices.”

    At Augment Therapy, he is responsible for testing the product for effectiveness. Additionally, he is currently developing 3D Avatars, which represent the wide range of body types of people with disabilities.

    As part of his testing duties, Dawud gets to spend lots of time playing all the Augment Therapy exercises and games. His favorite are the apps’ “open-world” free play games because “they incorporate many exercises in one platform in a way users may not be aware of while playing or going through the activities.”
