Johnny Young, Community Rep For The Deaf Community (email)

Johnny is 6’6” and wears shoe size 13…and loves tomatoes. He is the kind of guy you want to bump into in the sometimes-dark alley of the interpreting world. He has worked with and utilized interpreters all his life, from elementary school to college and has faced many possible scenarios. His experience helped him train and educate interpreters in the legal, theatrical, and especially medicinal fields. Empowering the community is always his ultimate goal. He is currently working on his BA in debate/speech and pursuing Deaf interpreter certification.
