Deaf Accessible 

I have not worked as an interpreter since 2010, and do NOT currently hold any interpreting credentials, but I do still have a moderate fluency level of ASL and can communicate regarding my role and purpose. 

I do NOT take the place of a Certified interpreter for official communication with medical providers as prescribed under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1991.
