Creating resilient communities is the goal of today's guest in the Disaster Tough Podcast.  

JT White and Susanna Pho joined forces in 2019 to form Forerunner, a software platform designed to empower communities to prepare better, respond, and plan for future disasters and major incidents.

The company specializes in its floodplain management platform which is designed to automate workflows for professionals to manage their resources better.  

However, the company is continuing to work toward becoming an "All Hazards Resilience Platform."

In this episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, Susanna and JT go back to their days as colleagues at MIT, and discuss how their idea for a company came about. 

They also discuss, among other things, how they work to lead a growing company from opposite sides of the country.
