- You know, I do feel like the door in Hollywood is being opened a little bit more.

Definitely more than in the past.

You know, there have been some deaf superheroes popping up in feature films.

There have been a couple of deaf characters on ongoing series, but, you know, in the past, deaf people would show up for maybe one or two episodes and that would be it.

And I would hope that from this point going forward that we see deaf actors who are just cast in ongoing roles, like larger roles.

Hollywood, I think, should see us as actors, not as deaf actors, but we're just actors and I would like to bring that energy, that professionalism to any role that we can do.
