I'm not a story; I'm a person, and my passion is music. And I want your passion to be my music - so, judge me on my music.
I use the aid of technology while running through songs. Visual tuners and feeling the vibrations through the floor to keep time.
My feeling of security really went down the tubes when I couldn't hear anymore. When it got dark, I'd get very afraid because I can't hear people coming up behind me.
I am an ambassador for a nonprofit organization and I love being able to help people crush their barriers. I recently wrote a book. I want to do more with my life and help people do more with their lives, whatever that looks like.
I really wanted to change the idea of what is possible and to show that 'deaf can' and what better place to do that than on national television?
What I do is I get the sheet music and I put it out for myself and then I use a visual tuner to go through each note individually. And every time I make a mistake, I start the song over again, so I use the muscle memory of intervals and then watching that tuner, and then a lot of repetition.
