Happily living with a spinal cord injury sustained when I was the victim of an armed robbery while a student at LSU in 1987. After becoming paralyzed at 19 years old I completed a BA in Psychology, Masters in Social Work and became an LCSW. I have three kids all in college. I am the Brand Ambassador for Numotion, which is the largest provider of Custom wheelchairs in the USA. We also sell devices for standing which I am passionate about! I have used standing devices and a bike with functional electrical stimulation for the entire 30 years I have lived with a spinal cord injury. My leg workouts have kept me free of any skin break down, improved bone strength, great muscle tone in my legs and great cardiovascular health. My legs don't look like I have paralysis and I feel good about myself inside and out! I want to make standing and FES standard care for people with disabilities! I am living my best life possible!
