I am originally from Chicago, but raised in St. Louis, Mo.  I went to St. Joseph Institute for the Deaf from the age of 3-7. This is where I learned to speak with my voice.  I was mainstreamed in hearing school my whole education career after the age of 7.  I started to learn ASL when I was 13 at a Deaf Camp and became immersed in college.  

I have one older sister; she has two children and her oldest has one child.  I am a huge St. Louis Cardinals & St. Louis Blues fan.  I am also a Star Wars freak and Disney as well.
