About Nelson Lee | (20) Nelson Lee | LinkedIn
Nelson Lee has a personal mission to enable positive social change. Early in his engineering career, he decided to tackle the high rate of assaults at post-secondary institutions by developing Haven, a campus security app. Haven is now licensed by a growing base of North American universities, with ongoing development and upgrades to meet a broad range of institutional goals.

Haven brought Nelson early but important recognition in the form of the Adel S. Sedra Award, the University of Toronto Engineering Leadership Award, and the prestigious University of Toronto 5T3 Engineering Award, worth over $30,000. Nelson’s work attracted this attention because his unique approach to Haven’s design encourages users to become familiar with the app, learn from it, and be prepared. The app can connect directly to campus security, but also offers intermediate steps and support including educational content on consent and domestic violence, plus specific topics customized to each school’s needs.

Nelson is actively involved in the life of his own alma mater, the University of Toronto, where he volunteers on the Governing Council, overseeing the University’s $3B operating budget.

Prior to launching Haven, Nelson lived in San Francisco and worked in Full Stack Engineering at Hearth, a Series B startup.
