No AD, No Game

Curious about how much of a difference AD can make?

Being Deaf Doesn't Define Me: Ricardo Lopez Changes the Narrative Through Strength and Determination
Ricardo Lopez is the coordinator for Learning Media resources at Gallaudet University and has been a member of our advisory board for over ten years.
