Episode 48 - Innovating for Independence

Join host Angie Kiger and Hawken Miller on Wheelchair Nerds as they interview Mark Fuglevand, founder of Abilitease. Mark, a C6 incomplete quadriplegic, shares his journey from a diving accident at 18 to creating affordable adaptive tools. We talk to Mark about transitioning from accounting to 3D printing, developing products that solve everyday problems and allow for independence. His innovations have impacted hundreds of lives, and we get to hear some of those incredible stories. Mark has been through at least a dozen manual wheelchairs, so he also shares his thoughts on the importance of personalized wheelchair adjustments, and his vision for the future of adaptive technology.
