The Mavericks sit down and chat with Mr. Nathan Watkins, CEO of Troy Technologies.  We talk wheelchairs and how design, manufacturing and thinking outside the box can improve the way we live and age.   Mr. Watkins and his team continue to push the limits on the wheelchair so that anyone can have the option to age in place with dignity!   

“Why should a wheelchair look like a wheelchair when it can look like any other chair?” ~ Nathan Watkins, CEO, Troy Technologies
