- On the Tech Innovation front, Jean designed a utility-patented micro-sized mobile charger which allows you to ditch the garb we carry around in our bags and briefcases, to use a micro-size pocket phone charger instead, compatible with most USB/C devices. You-GO-Mobile was trademarked as a utility-patented line designed in a variety of colors, 110V and battery styles. Jean decided to focus efforts on cause-related work for breast cancer, hence her media and fashion work took the forefront, while production for the tech innovations was put on hold. She is still very much interested in bringing this product line to market with appropriate funding.
