Trisha Prabhu is a twenty-year-old innovator, social entrepreneur, global advocate, and inventor of ReThink™, a patented technology and an effective way to detect and stop online hate. As a victim of cyberbullying herself, Trisha was shocked, heartbroken, and outraged. Deeply moved to action by the silent pandemic of cyberbullying and passionate to end online hate, Trisha created the patented technology product ReThink™, which detects and stops online hate at the source, before the bullying occurs, before the damage is done. Her globally acclaimed research has found that with ReThink™, adolescents change their mind 93 percent of the time and decide not to post an offensive message.

Trisha is the first ever Harvard College freshman to win the Harvard University's President Innovation Grand Prize.
