​Theodore “Ted” Catino has created and overseen successful businesses for more than 20 years. In 2016, Ted Catino and his wife, Becky, co-founded GigSmart, where they help organizations to navigate the on-demand economy. GigSmart is a mobile application that enables users to seek flexible employment and provides charitable organizations with an effective method for managing their volunteers needs.
 
GigSmart provides charities with a no-cost method of managing their current volunteer workforce while increasing their access to new group of volunteers. Through GigSmart, charities gain access to the application’s database of available workers, many of whom can begin working immediately.

In addition, charities that are shorthanded for an event can use the app to fill their volunteer needs on the spot. GigSmart can also connect charities with parents who wish to volunteer with their children, students who need to earn service hours for school, and retirees who desire a means of giving back to their community.
