Motherhood in Sport - Bra

As a working, nursing mother I often pumped at work. The nursing room was at times busy with a waiting line. In those cases, I would use the restroom to insert my mobile breast pump in my bra and return back to work. People would approach me and have no idea that I was pumping as I worked in the space. The Nike Women’s Innovation team caught word of my new wearable tech. Together we collaborated on ways to build a sports bra to support the new tech. I was the researcher, wear tester, maker and one of the many mom innovators on this project. This project was kicked off during Co-Vid and I had the benefit of doing this from home with my son. Our project was presented to leadership and adopted to start building a mobile wearable pump sports bra.
