I am currently completing a PhD in Education with a focus on the Deaf community and education. With barriers, challenges and sometimes insurmountable odds, the Deaf experience education differently to those who hear. Not undermining the possibility of 'hearing prejudice', the Deaf have engaged more with the hearing community to educate and inform them of Deaf culture and identity. Notwithstanding, the Deaf community still face critical, judgemental and discriminatory practices globally. It is my hope that my research will allow others to build on my work. Thank you for reading my bio.
