In 2010, Omar became a quadriplegic when he broke his neck at the C5 vertabrae in an accident while swimming in Iraq, and fell into a depression that lasted five years. Nearly seven years later, having moved with his family to Canada, Omar used the LipSync to write his exam at BCIT independently, without the use of a scriber.
We will be at the largest Maker Faire in the world, the Maker Faire Bay Area, from May 19-21, 2017 to present about Making Access for People with Disabilities.
