I was a job developer placing disabled adults in gainful employment. I contracted with RSA in Arizona from 1990-96. I worked at the homeless shelter as a job developer for the next 3-1/2 years. I enjoy working with work station mods, adaptive equipment and jigs and fixtures. I made the first HeliX (TM) rims in 2006.
