I have a bachelors degree in Sociology from University of Alaska Anchorage (1993); a masters degree in Rehabilitation Counseling with Deaf Persons from Western Oregon University at Monmouth (1996); and a doctorate of Deaf Education and Deaf Studies from Lamar University at Beaumont, Texas (2001). I am a nationally certified counselor (NCC); a certified rehabilitation counselor (CRC); and a provisionally-certified teacher of deaf children (CED).
I have published or co-published approximately ten articles or book chapters on due process and accessibility for deaf offenders in the justice system. In 2003, I was fortunate to have a book, Deaf culture behind bars: Signs & stories of a Texas population, published. I have worked as a researcher and assistant professor at the University of Arkansas Regional Research & Training Center on Deafness from 2001-2004. I served as an assistant professor and program coordinator at the Winston-Salem State University rehabilitation program in North Carolina from 2004-2007. I am currently an associate professor at Emporia State University in Kansas, teaching rehabilitation courses and sign language at the graduate and undergraduate levels. I teach both online and traditional courses.
