Hi! My name is Kelsey, this is my sign name. I am sharing this vlog with you so that you can
learn a little more about who I am and what I do at SESA as a Deaf and Hard of Hearing
education specialist. I am a certified Teacher of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, with a
background in Bilingual-Bicultural education. I graduated from Boston University, four-
thousand miles away from Alaska. My role is to provide consultation to education teams in rural
Alaska that serve DHH students. I recommend resources and assessments that will equip the
teams to better meet their students’ unique educational needs and provide opportunity to access
communication successfully.
You can contact me at any time via phone, video phone, or email. I look forward to meeting you,
working with you, and seeing your DHH student succeed.
