About the solution

“After I was bitten I had to adapt to a new life, wearing a prosthesis, and that condition made me learn a lot about what’s living with a different condition. I ended up writing my book, telling about that strange accident, and also about overcoming having this condition”, he explained.

Carlos moved to Canada in 2014, and his now trying to create his own business for people with disabilities.

“With this insight and my work experience in hand, I’m determined to start creating opportunities myself for people with disabilities, by creating a T-Shirt company staffed mainly by individuals with disabilities. The company is called The Talent”.

This entrepreneur is also promoting its fund raising campaign.
