JERNEJ SLUGA (PRESIDENT OF APHASIE INTERNATIONALE)
Jernej Sluga graduated in electrical engineering and worked as a sales manager at Špica International. In his ‘previous life’, as Jernej likes to call the period before the stroke, he was a successful ice-hockey player and ski teacher. After his stroke, at first it seemed he would not be able to walk or talk again. But things turned for the better against all odds. His doctor is still amazed at what Jernej has achieved driven by his iron will.
