Traci Orel and Charley Thurber join us on the Pressing The Limits Podcast.
Charley Thurber is the founder of Thurber Medical, a medical technology company that supplies professional and collegiate athletic training departments with cutting-edge health and rehabilitative equipment.
Charley is a former professional baseball player, spending the majority of 7 professional seasons in the New York Mets and Colorado Rockies organizations. He was an SEC Honor Roll Student Athlete at the University of Tennessee where he graduated with a degree in Sport Management and a minor in Business Management. He was selected in the MLB Draft after spending three years as the right fielder for the Volunteers.
Traci Orel has more than 30 years in the Health and Sports Industry. Her desire to help athletes not only with their injuries but also to enhance performance comes from her own personal experience starting after several injuries sustained in her 13-year career in competitive gymnastics which ultimately ended her career. Traci went on to study Kinesiology at Michigan State University which then led her to take interest in athletic training, physical therapy, and personal training, competing herself in figure competitions. All this experience made for a natural progression to focus her passion on Rehab and Sports aiming to help athletes in all sports achieve their goals.
During this journey, Traci became very interested in learning about tools to facilitate the healing process and shifted her focus into medical sales and consulting. Her passion along with her curiosity, and interest in technology made for a perfect fit to bring new technology to the US market. Traci has successfully launched and created brands for several European companies and looks forward to bringing game changing technologies to the US market so that athletes both professional and the weekend warriors can continue their careers and fitness goals.
