About Us
Recovr was created by a dedicated team of students from the Community Health Volunteers of Madison (CHVM) at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. United by our shared experiences as athletes, volunteers, and healthcare advocates, we saw firsthand how hard it can be for young athletes, especially in rural communities, to access clear, trustworthy information about sports injuries.
Our mission is to change that.
Through Recovr, we aim to bridge the gap between professional medical knowledge and youth-friendly education. Our platform helps middle school, high school, and college athletes to understand common sports injuries, recognize early warning signs, and learn safe recovery practices. By combining interactive learning tools, real athlete testimonials, and verified educational content, we’re helping the next generation of athletes play smarter, recover stronger, and stay in the game.
Recovr isn’t a replacement for medical care: it’s a resource built by students, for students, to make injury awareness simple, engaging, and empowering.
Meet the Team:
My name is Tristan Tetting, I am the founder of Recovr and Co-President of CHVM’s Health Access Branch. I am majoring in Neurobiology on the pre-medical track with certificates in Entrepreneurship and Science Communication at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Growing up in rural Northeastern Wisconsin, I experienced first hand the discrepancies in rural health care. After sustaining a serious injury in a high school soccer match, my options were an ice pack from the school’s under-paid and under-trained athletic training staff or a thirty minute drive to the nearest appropriate facility, often causing financial strain on me and my family. Recovr is our attempt to bring zero cost consumer information to the general public and especially to bridge the gap for young athletes in places with limited healthcare accessibility.
My name is Rylee Corteen, and I am the Co-President of CHVM’s Health Access Branch. I am from Marshfield, Wisconsin. I am majoring in psychology and biology, and am on the pre-physician's assistant track at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Growing up, I have always been an active individual involved in sports. Currently, I play on the UW club volleyball team. I have always wanted a career in medicine, specifically sports medicine, which is why I am so interested in the Recovr project! Growing up as an athlete, I faced many minor and major injuries ranging from stress fractures to rotator cuff tears. Many times I felt I didn’t have access to proper resources to fully understand the implications and recovery process of my injuries, which can be really terrifying as a competitive athlete at a young age. I am so thrilled to be working on the Recovr project to provide a sustainable non-profit educational platform for young athletes.
My name is Kameron Fahimi. In the project Recovr, I serve as the Director of Operations for Recovr and CHVM’s Health Access Branch. I’m from Los Altos Hills, California. Recovr is important to me after having worked in EMS for two years now as an EMT. I have seen many different injuries and injury types, some of which have been sports related injuries related to youth. Many times school resources such as athletic trainers and supporting staff cannot do much on site and end up calling an ambulance when needed. With Recovr we can bring injury related information to the public without any fees.

My name is Lena Shaban, and I am a Biology major with a certificate in 3D Art Studios on the pre-dental track and I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. I currently serve as the Director of Outreach & Partnerships and Co-Chair of CHVM’s Outreach Branch. I’ve always been drawn to healthcare, especially through my experiences playing sports, where I often dealt with minor injuries and found myself researching treatments and recovery on my own. Growing up, I moved to the U.S. at the age of 10 and it was difficult to navigate healthcare especially with English not being my first language. Recovr offers a valuable solution by providing a single, reliable platform where people can easily find the answers they need in one place.
My name is Ella Campbell and I am a volunteer with Recovr and a member of CHVM’s Health Accessibility Branch. I am from St. Louis, MO. I am majoring in Neurobiology on the pre-medical track at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I was interested in the Recovr project because growing up, while I wasn’t an athlete myself, both my brother and my sister were. I would often see them coming home with sport-related injuries like strains or stress fractures and not knowing how to prevent them or even how to help heal it outside the standard R.I.C.E. method. What attracted me to the Recovr project was being able to provide more in-depth information on how to better recover from injuries so that young athletes can get back to the sports they love.
