Chose O&P Field Because

As a double amputee, Riley knows what a big difference a high-quality prosthesis or orthosis can make. I chose the O&P field because I wanted to help people like me get the most out of their lives by providing the best devices possible.

Comment

“Helping other people is what motivates me. I feel like it’s such a big privilege to have someone trust me with their care. I love the relationships that I get to build with my patients. Seeing them succeed gives me such joy.”

FUN

FACTS

Riley’s best friend is his dog, Bonnie, who has three legs. When he isn’t hanging out with her, he usually can be found doing something active outdoors such as rock climbing, hiking, camping, fishing, or kayaking. He also enjoys scuba diving, riding his adaptive mountain bike, and sit skiing.
