Who am I?

 I am an ASL teacher, poet, and content creator. I am a mother. 

Most importantly, I am Deaf.

Where did "A Deafinitely Novel Life" come about?

 My friend, K.T. James, and I  wanted a place to highlight the beauty - and struggles - of the Deaf community.

We often collaborate together as we both love reading, ASL, and the Deaf Community. She is a writer who focuses on young adult fantasy book with D/HH characters. You can find a link to her site under my "Collaborations" page and on her site, a link to mine. If you'd like to collaborate with me - fill out my form on the Collaborations page! 

What will be on the site?

There will be a multitude of topics and items, including, but not limited to: blogs, VLogs (video blogs), ASL poetry (and some short stories), ASL resources, and my shop. I also plan to have guest bloggers that can provide unique perspectives or support and resources that I've learned about that have helped me.​​
