Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal ASL


This was required for my Sign Three final project. I got an A on the project with the best overall score in the class! I’m not entirely satisfied with some of my dancing (OK, a lot of my dancing, but I didn’t practice it enough before the performance). Perhaps later this summer I will revisit this piece with a more polished look (more camera angles, more scripted movements, etc). But for now, enjoy my total lack of self dignity and one awesome song..

AB 2072 is an OPPORTUNITY!


This message is for deaf people in California. You were told that AB 2072 was a bad bill. It’s a typical response coming from a closed society filled with people who simply do not know how to compete in this world.

It’s probably high time they were replaced..
