About Michael Feger
Michael Feger has always been fascinated with cars, computers, and anything related to technology. After graduating high school in 1999, he started a degree in graphic design at Louisville Tech.
On May 9th, 2002 Michael was rear-ended by a semi truck while driving to a car show. The wreck injured his spinal cord at C3, C4 & C5, resulting in Paralysis from the neck down and an Incomplete Quadriplegia. At Frazier Rehab, Michael learned how to use the computer again by using a head-controlled mouse. When Michael got home from the hospital, he started to volunteer his time and build websites.
Since his spinal cord injury, Michael has volunteered to build several websites for non-profit organizations. You can see some of his volunteer work on Michael Feger’s personal website.
