New year, new chapter! I am honored to announce that I have joined Deaf Spotlight as a Board Member✨My journey began in filmmaking and eventually led me into the heart of the Deaf community as a Teacher of the Deaf (@tcdeafed proud!). My mission has always been to weave accessibility into storytelling and to empower the deaf, disabled, queer, and diasporic communities. I have found that same vision at the core of Deaf Spotlight. I’m committed to supporting the org, providing the platform and access Deaf artists deserve. You can help us keep Deaf arts thriving by contributing at the link in my bio. I look forward to fueling an accessible 2026 with the talented team. Appreciation and regards to @whynotpatty

ID: Two women stand side by side in front of a white step-and-repeat backdrop printed with the black “DEAF SPOT LIGHT” logo. On the left is Patty, smiling broadly, wearing glasses, a black shirt with light-colored sleeves, a green knitted scarf or collar, and colorful earrings, with her hair pulled back. On the right is Yiru, smiling softly, with straight, shoulder-length black hair, wearing a gray blazer over a light-colored top and a watch on her left wrist, her hands gently clasped in front of her. The lighting is bright and even, giving the photo a polished, professional event atmosphere.
