SteadyScrib, the innovative assistive technology company behind a thoughtfully engineered writing tool for people with Parkinson’s disease, has joined the lineup of teams for Moving Day Atlanta 2025, the Parkinson’s Foundation’s signature fundraising walk.

Founded by Northwestern University students Izzy Mokotoff and Alexis Chan, SteadyScrib was inspired by Izzy’s grandfather “Pops,” whose ability to write was taken by Parkinson’s. Izzy loved her Pops to the point of innovation, channeling that deep connection into something that could help not only him, but thousands of others.

Together, Izzy and Alexis combined empathy, engineering, and purpose to develop a pen and clipboard system that helps stabilize tremors and restore independence in writing.

How it works: The SteadyScrib pen features a unique design that works to counteract the writing-inhibitive symptoms of Parkinson’s. It includes a wide comfort grip and magnets that attach it to a special clipboard, which itself uses a silicone sheet and neodymium magnets to hold paper securely in place. The result is a system that not only allows for more legible handwriting but also boosts confidence and dignity for those using it. The product has been praised by people with Parkinson’s and occupational therapists alike for its effectiveness and simplicity.

Since launching in 2024, SteadyScrib has shipped products around the world and received national attention for its mission to restore one of life’s most basic functions—putting pen to paper.

Now, by joining Moving Day Atlanta, the SteadyScrib team is taking their commitment a step further, literally. On Saturday, October 25, 2025, at Brook Run Park, they’ll walk alongside hundreds of others to raise awareness, build community, and celebrate movement in all its forms.
