Innovation comes when you take risks. Although we’re fearless, we’re not reckless. We learn fast, take chances, and know nothing is born perfect but we strive for it.

Things are impossible until they’re not. Predicting injury before it occurs is a lofty goal, but we exist to challenge the norm to elevate the standard of care.
