Hello friends,

I had to keep this a secret for TEDxIslay but now I can announce that I was one of the 10 speakers on April 23, 2011 in Northridge, CA.  It was TED's second year of using Deaf speakers.  It was a spectacular experience to being able to have the opportunity to share my view as a working actress and to learn other views from the 9 fabulous speakers.  Stay tuned for the video with captions and voice over, which will be out soon.
