Here is his sophomore school picture.

What are some things people generally assume about deaf people that you feel should be clarified? How can people look at deaf people in a better light? I am a deaf person myself with deaf parents who use fluent ASL. I'd love to see your input on this.

EDIT: By the way, I went to California School for the Deaf, Riverside with Sean Berdy. He was a little tyke in elementary school while I was a high school senior. Funny how this is such a small world.

I went to high school and played football with Ryan Lane. It's amazing how much he changed after high school.

Students used to pick on him often and he struggled with making friends but he rounded out as the years came by. I would have never expected him to become who he is right now.

Limitations only have the power you give them.

That is a good one. Thank you for replying! I taught university level ASL courses and I can confirm that SAB brought a lot of people to learn ASL. More media exposure and awareness about deaf people is always a welcome sight.
