Silence Is The Last Thing The World

There Are So Many People, Deaf Or Otherwise Abled, Who Are So Talented But Overlooked Or Not Given A Chance To Even Get Their Foot In The Door.

The Best Feeling In The World Is When Your Child Comes Up To You And Lays Their Head In Your Lap, For No Other Reason But Just Because. I Can't Wait To Have More.

I Have Made The Choices That Work Best For Me. I Know I Cannot Please Everyone, And That's Fine.

I Grew Up In The Suburbs Of Chicago, And In Spite Of What Most People Might Have Expected From A Young Girl Growing Up Deaf, Life For Me Was Like One Long Episode Of The Brady Bunch. Despite Whatever Barriers Were In My Way, I Imagined Myself As Marcia Brady Skating Down The Street Saying “hi” To Everyone, Whether They Knew Me Or Not.

I Have Always Resisted Putting Limitations On Myself, Both Professionally And Personally.
