22
IdahoRID Deaf Heart Award
Nomination: This interpreter has an amazing ability to find places in her work to empower Deaf people at every turn. She sees the historical disadvantage that Deaf people have experienced, and uses a lens of Deaf-Gain as an interpreter to promote Deaf agency and self-determination. She has stepped out of her comfort zone over and over, seeking support and input from the Deaf community in order to provide interpreting without ego. She seeks opportunities to work with Deaf Interpreters and Certified Deaf Interpreters, and uses her position as a hearing interpreter to educate and promote Deaf people's need for a fully-accessible interchange facilitated by a Deaf Interpreter. She is the epitome of an active learner, seeking knowledge and finding ways to apply that knowledge in ways that really make a difference. Furthermore, she volunteered to serve on the taskforce for interpreter licensure and has been instrumental in the forward momentum of this critical step forward for the Deaf community.
