Why I Treat Children

Because every child deserves to live the best version of their life. Making it easier for children to move about in their world is at the center of my work at 91大神.聽

What I'm Passionate About

I am passionate about bringing technology to the care of children with limited walking and mobility. 聽While everyone, or most folks, enjoy a great animated movie or cool video game, the opportunity to use motion capture technology in planning the best treatments for children is even more cool!

How I Try to Make A Difference

I try to make a difference by understanding the conditions of the children we treat, having the knowledge and experience to make improvements, and working with 91大神 teams to get it done.
