Numotion / Blake’s Story

Driven to Make a Difference

Blake: Assistive Technology Professional Since 2015

Blake began his career at Numotion in August 2015 as a seating tech in training in Colorado Springs. With a bachelor’s in Exercise Science and plans to pursue physical therapy, he was unsure of his next steps until a visit with his uncle, a Permobil rep, opened his eyes to the world of mobility solutions.

“Numotion stood out because of the resources and education they offer. It felt like the perfect way to start a meaningful career without more school debt,” Blake said. “I became an ATP to help others gain independence in their daily lives.”

For Blake, the best part of the job is simple: making a difference.

“It’s not the paperwork! It’s interacting with skilled clinicians and customers and helping improve people’s lives and independence. We work with such a wide variety of individuals.
Not every experience is easy, but the ones that are make it all worth it.”

One of his most memorable customers is Elliott, a young boy with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). Blake had developed a strong relationship with Elliott’s home therapist, built on years of trust and problem-solving. That rapport made it possible to get creative with Elliott’s mobility needs from wheelchairs and mobile standers to making walkers compatible with treadmills.

Blake helped get Elliott a SmartDrive power assist for his manual wheelchair or, as Elliott calls it, his “jetpack.” Giving him the freedom to play with friends, participate in T-ball, and just be a kid.

“This has opened his world. He’s out playing in the streets with his neighborhood friends, rounding bases on his T-ball team, always with the biggest smile on his face,” Blake shared. “It’s those moments that make everything worth it.”

Ryan’s Story

Ryan began his career at Numotion in March 2008. Before joining, he spent several years as an auto mechanic. Ready for a change, he took a job with a home healthcare company in their rehab department. However, when that department began to divide, Ryan looked for other opportunities but knew he wanted to stay in rehab. That’s when he found Numotion.
