Expertise:  I would be very happy to try to answer any questions that you may have about things you can do as a hearing-impaired person to find a good job or better your education. I have been working with the deaf since 1996. One of the greatest needs seems to be finding help with getting a better education and employment. To try to fill that need, started a FREE deaf job service web page at www.vcaa.com/deafnews/jobs. You can post your résumé there for free. I am also collecting deaf job information, educational opportunities and vocational financial assistance for the hearing impaired from every state and posting it on that web page. Because the ideal employment for some hearing impaired people would be to work at home, I am in the process of writing a book about that and I also post that information on the web page when ever I find it. There is no cost to use the information on the web page and I will be happy to try to answer your questions here as well.
I am hard of hearing myself. I lost most of my hearing in Vietnam. My wife and 4 of my 6 children have learned some sign language. I know what it is like to be in a room and have everyone laughing but me because I did not understand what was said. That happens all the time and has greatly changed my confidence socially. So I am very interested in helping others who have a similar disability.

What do you like about this subject?  I enjoy working with hearing impaired people and it brings me great joy when I am successful in helping them find a better job or get the opportunity to obtain a better education so they can find a better job.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I hope to become the worlds greatest deaf employment service. I hope some day to be able to actually say that I have helped millions of hearing impaired people get a better education, find better jobs and have a better quality of life. That is more important to me than any money that I could ever earn. Just to bring joy and happiness to others i
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  THE ONLY THING A DEAF PERSON CAN NOT DO IS HEAR..... NEVER FORGET THAT!!!!!!!
