Maynard Carkhuff, the vice chairman and CIO of Freedom Innovations, Irvine, California, has been elected to the California Orthotic & Prosthetic Association (COPA) board of directors. Carkhuff’s appointment was voted upon and made official at COPA’s annual meeting held October 28-29 in San Francisco.
Carkhuff joined Freedom in 2005 with over 25 years of leadership in the pharmaceutical, dental, and prosthetic industries.
“It’s an honor to represent Freedom Innovations while stepping into a leadership role alongside my industry colleagues at COPA,” said Carkhuff. “COPA does essential work promoting the art and science of orthotics and prosthetics to create and communicate innovative solutions for positive patient experiences-which dovetails perfectly with our own mission at Freedom. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute, particularly in the areas of growing membership and strategic planning.”
