Thomas Cloyd, a digital healthcare professional living in California, reflects on the road to independence after a spinal cord injury at the C5/C6 level left him quadriplegic. After his injury in 2012, Thomas went on to earn a Master of Business Administration from the University of Minnesota Carlson School of Management and found a job in California away from his strong support network back home in Minnesota. Despite moving far from home, Thomas now lives independently and has been able to develop a routine to catheterize on his own – which he believes is a major reason he’s been able to live the life he wants. Thomas will share his catheterization best practices, tips and tricks, and advice to help others on the road to independence.
