About Jeff Wray: Born with severe physical anomalies that could affect his abilities to walk, talk and perform daily activities with his hands. Jeff was born with Hypoglossia-Hypodactylia Syndrome, Amniotic Band Syndrome, and part of his tongue fused into the soft pallet in his mouth. In the face of adversity and doubters, Jeff has shown his peers you can do anything if you put your mind and will into it. From his first steps wearing a prosthetic leg and an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO), countless hours of speech therapy, and breaking barriers in occupational therapy, Jeff has displayed the true grit that inspires those who meet him. Jeff has risen above his obstacles to become a well educated and successful entrepreneur. Taught in a mainstreamed environment, Jeff was able to attain a Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems and a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) from Stetson University.
