From Teacher to Performing Artist Speaker: Lisa Dennett, MA, CI
It was not until after college and returning from performing in Europe during the summer of 1986 that Lisa decided to make a list of other things she wanted to do– and that included learning some sign language. Never intending to go beyond the basics, Lisa really took to it. Three years, six courses and an interpreter training program later, it has changed her life both socially and professionally.
