Members of Baltimore’s tech scene say Pava LaPere was committed to social justice.

LaPere was a native of Tucson, Arizona, who went to Johns Hopkins University for college, according to an interview. She studied computer science for three years before switching her major to sociology because, she said, she wanted to use entrepreneurship to solve inequalities in society.
