You will love her! She is an American Sign Language Interpreter who specializes in music. In an article by the Houston Chronicle, “With a rapper’s swagger, she lets it fly, signing rapid-fire lyrics. She’s hired to stand at the side of the stage and interpret Madonna and Paul McCartney, Lady Gaga and Rage Against the Machine for deaf audience members. She works South by Southwest every year, and she is in high demand at music festivals such as Austin City Limits and Lollapalooza.” You can see her ASL rendition of Taylor Swift's "Shake it Off" below, and check out her other music and sign videos on YouTube.
