    About 20 years ago suddenly I lost all hearing in my left ear, and had some hearing loss in my right ear, along with sever tinnitus. I tried a hearing aid in my good ear but it was not right for me.

    I was born profoundly deaf and raised to lipread and speak. I wore hearing aids my whole life until I got my implant in 2006. Now I’m a hybrid: I wear a digital HA and a CI. I have a Masters in Journalism from UC Berkeley and like to educate others about people with disabilities.
