You are in for a special treat today! May is Better Hearing and Speech month, so I will highlighting professionals who work with people who are deaf or hard of hearing. 

To start us off first up is Alexis. She was my kid counselor years ago at Bear Lake Lions Camp in Michigan for kids who are deaf or hard of hearing. Alexis is a deaf adult, and is currently in the last year of Audiology school.

Alexis is a joy and a delight and listen as she shares how a deaf adult can be an audiologist, and how hearing loss is an invisible disability.

If your child has received the same diagnosis you are in the right place. I welcome you into our tribe.
