About me
I’m Hunter Cullen.
I bring together research, design, and an interest in how safety and public systems affect everyday life.
From practical support to independent projects
I’m most interested in making complex information useful to the person who needs it.
My work has included office administration, social media management, brand design, and legislative and political research. Those experiences shaped the way I organize information: start with the source, explain what matters, and make the next action clear.
At The MENTOR Network, I helped develop a fire drill log that documented exit routes across 159 group home sites. It connected my interest in life safety with a tool people could use repeatedly.
That approach continues through CodeTrack, my Indiana emergency communication proposals, and guides for responsible collecting and self advocacy.
What I’m interested in
Fire alarms and emergency communication
I’m interested in fire alarm devices, responsible collecting, and systems that tell people what to do in an emergency. Mass notification means communicating instructions to a group of people, often through several channels.
Building codes and public policy
I follow how safety standards become state requirements, and how legislation and public comments influence those decisions. CodeTrack grew from this interest in making official information easier to find.
Disability rights and self advocacy
I care about accessible communication and people’s ability to participate in decisions that affect them. My resources focus on explaining needs, making specific requests, and planning the next step.
Public research, weather, and media
I use public records and original sources to check information. This is sometimes called open source intelligence, or OSINT. I also follow severe weather alerts, politics, campaigns, and public communication.

How I approach the work
Keep the evidence close
Use primary documents and public records. A summary should help readers reach the source and understand its limits.
Explain the practical meaning
Give technical terms context and organize information around the questions people bring to it.
Respect safety and privacy
Keep educational collecting separate from work on active safety systems, and share only the personal information a request needs.
