TONIGHT IN BROOKLYN, NY! 🗽🔥🤟🏾

TONIGHT IN BROOKLYN, NY! 🗽🔥🤟🏾

Tonight is a special one for me and my family as we celebrate the Sign Language Center’s 25th Anniversary Gala!

My history with SLC goes back years. I worked there as an ASL tutor in Manhattan, just a short walk from Penn Station.

I was introduced to the late Alan Roth, one of the owners of Sign Language Center, who immediately hired me after seeing the charisma, personality, and energy I brought. I’ll always give love and respect to Shelly Guy, the woman who helped open that door for me.

Alan has since passed away, and today Brian Blais continues leading SLC.

During my time there, I taught ASL to many clients, built friendships, created relationships, and expanded my network. Some of those connections became much more than just teacher and student.

Sign Language Center became part of my journey, and it will always have a place in my life. ❤️🤟🏾

So tonight feels full circle.

My sons, Def Familia Boyz, will be performing as an opening act for an amazing lineup tonight in Brooklyn!

🎤 MC: Zavier Sabio

🎬 Produced by: Mara Stephens

🤟🏾 Event Coordinator: Jo-Ann Dean

This will be the boys’ 4th performance, and they’ll be bringing two of their songs:

🔥 “Tell Me Who You Are”

🔥 “Ball So Hard”

What makes what they do special is that they are CODA kids combining rap and sign language at the same time. We produced the beats, created the songs, and wrote them ourselves as a family.

Tonight is about ASL, Deaf culture, music, family, community, and celebrating 25 years of Sign Language Center bringing people together.

We’re coming to have fun, bring that energy, and help open up an amazing night.

BROOKLYN — WE’LL SEE YOU TONIGHT! 🔥🤟🏾🎤

Silence Is The Loudest Sound.
