What's your specialty/Talent Management?(merged)

My name is Vince. I own and operate a prosthetics and orthotics practice in Ventura County. That means I make custom artificial limbs for amputees and orthopedic braces for persons who are recovering from surgery, stroke, spinal cord injury, fractures, etc...

My current project is to make a brace for a mountain biker who suffered extensive nerve damage to his arm/shoulder resulting in >90% paralysis of the limb. He wants to continue cycling but his arm is useless in it's current state. That will soon change...
