Hi! My Name is Tylor Massouda, and I have had the privilege to intern at Dankmeyer for my high school senior capstone project. I chose Dankmeyer because I myself have a passion for biomedical engineering and wanted to explore the prosthetic and orthotics field. Over the course of six weeks, I have shadowed and assisted clinicians, organized demos, tool benches and patient rooms, and have disassembled devices for donation. I am thankful to the entire Dankmeyer staff for giving me this invaluable opportunity. This experience has fostered my love for O&P, and I hope that as I begin college at the University of Miami, I am able to continue to delve into this work.
Thank you Tylor, and the best of luck as you head off to college!
Tylor’s time with us came about as part of his unique high school program. Dankmeyer’s ongoing education and training mission is very important to us, and we like to support requests like Tylor’s when we can. Students often have a personal interest in exploring the possibility of a career in the O&P field.
Thank you to Mary Reedy, CP our Senior Prosthetist & Residency Director for coordinating Tylor’s experience.
