She earned her Master's degree in Special Education from the University of Pittsburgh, where she received her ASL training from the late (and great) Karen Walkney Mrdjenovich.  She currently splits her time between Pittsburgh and the New River Gorge where she works in season as a rock-climbing guide and can be found in the wild often with her dog, Yogi.
