I am an aca-clinician: part academic, part clinician. As a PhD candidate, I conduct research and publish my findings in scholarly journals. As a licensed clinical social worker, I meet with clients, collaborate with other therapists, and work to disseminate research findings. I am also (d)eaf. My hearing loss started at the age of 4 years old and progressed slowly over the years. I navigate the hearing world as bi-modal, with a cochlear implant, a hearing aid, and many accommodations.
