Experience

Amanda is a new mom to a beautiful baby girl, so has added motherhood to her resume. Outside of work and “mom-ing”, she enjoys developing and sharing content for her blog (www.thatdeafgirl.com), advocating for inclusion in the general public and workforce on social media, and inspiring individuals alike.
Education
Amanda graduated from Towson University with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. After graduating she spent several years working with special needs children. Amanda later returned to school to pursue a degree in dental hygiene at Northern Virginia Community College.
