My name is Lisa and I just moved here from Wauwatosa, WI (near Milwaukee). I am hearing, but minored in ASL in college. I graduated this past May and would like to get to know people in the area and keep up with my ASL.
I started teaching myself when I was in elementary school, but I didn't start taking classes until 2008.
When I was in 1st or 2nd grade I had several ear surgeries in a row and I thought I was going to become deaf so I wanted to start to learn, just in case. When I didn't become deaf I continued to want to learn the language because of its beauty and unique characteristics.

Hi Lisa and welcome to the Glen Burnie Social Dance Group!
Lisa, welcome to the group. I'm guessing you're a Cheesehead/Pack
