About HuVia
Origin
Built from inside the work.
HuVia Technologies was founded by Sarah Wheeler and her son, Maddox Wheeler. Their experience meets at the intersection of high-stakes cognitive performance, language access, and AI infrastructure.
HuVia exists to answer a single question: what would it take to keep high-judgment professionals, and the human-AI loop they work inside, from degrading? Sign language interpreters became the first deployment, the vertical the founders knew best and the one where the stakes of eroding judgment are most acute.
Team
Focused leadership.
Sarah Wheeler
CEO & Co-Founder
Sarah grew up as a Child of Deaf Adults and has lived inside Deaf community spaces her entire life. She served in the United States Air Force and has spent more than twenty years in sign language interpreting and language access, a field where a single cognitive error under load can alter a legal outcome, a medical decision, or a classroom’s trajectory. She holds two master’s degrees, one in interpreting pedagogy and one in psychology. She founded Building Bridges Global LLC, a certified SDVOSB, WOSB, and VOSB federal services firm that delivers interpreting and language access at scale, and serves as an RID Sponsor, number 2309. Sarah led the design of InterpretReflect, the practitioner workbench for sign language interpreters. She sets HuVia’s strategic and commercial direction and is the primary voice on partnerships, agency relationships, and regulatory strategy.
Maddox Wheeler
CTO & Co-Founder
Maddox grew up in high-performance environments through top-level competitive soccer, where small gains in decision-making and execution determine outcomes. After graduating high school, he dedicated himself to learning AI and software, studying modern AI architectures, coding, and infrastructure, and he is now taking university courses toward an AI engineering degree. At HuVia, he builds and evolves the infrastructure behind the platform and its measurement research, including data pipelines, model training environments, and the governance framework that keeps every AI component within defined autonomy boundaries. He treats the reliability of AI systems under load as a performance problem that must be engineered, not improvised.
Posture
Practitioner-researcher, not vendor.
HuVia operates from a practitioner-researcher posture: field-credible first, commercial second. This is a structural commitment, not a tagline. Every product decision is tested against a simple question: would someone doing this work recognize it as useful, or would it feel like it was built from outside the field?
HuVia’s work is grounded in real high-stakes practice, anchored to published cognitive load and performance research, and refined through direct feedback from the people whose work it protects.
Structure
HuVia Technologies LLC
HuVia is a technology company headquartered in Kernersville, North Carolina. The company builds human-agency infrastructure: protecting professional judgment, automating the periphery, and keeping the human-AI loop healthy in high-stakes roles. The first deployment serves sign language interpreters through InterpretReflect, with live workshops offered through The Interpreter School.
HuVia works alongside Building Bridges Global LLC, an affiliated interpreting and language-access firm founded by Sarah Wheeler. Building Bridges Global is a certified SDVOSB, WOSB, and VOSB federal services provider and the RID CEU Sponsor, number 2309, behind the workshops. HuVia builds the technology; Building Bridges Global carries the interpreting services, federal contracting, and continuing education sponsorship.
