In 2004, at the age of 18, Josh Basile was paralyzed below the shoulders in a beach accident. Today, he is a C4-5 quadriplegic, power wheelchair user, medical malpractice lawyer, and disabilities rights advocate serving persons both in the courtroom and through policy initiatives. He is a community leader and changemaker who works tirelessly to improve the quality of life for people with disabilities and to continuously break down existing barriers to access and inclusion.
As if that weren’t enough, in 2007 he created SPINALpedia, the world’s largest paralysis video mentoring network with 23,000 videos searchable by physical functionality. Josh was kind enough to carve some time out of his busy schedule to join me for this episode of The QuadCast podcast.
