Welcome to My Portfolio! 

Hey there! Thank you for stopping by my portfolio. This portfolio demonstrates my cumulative skills, knowledge, and competencies acquired during my time in the American Sign Language-English Interpreting (ASLEI) program at UNC. The included artifacts are from a variety of courses and assignments completed during the program. This portfolio serves as evidence of my learning to this point and uses reflections to acknowledge areas where I will continue to work to improve my skills and competency. It is a core belief in my work that the development of an interpreter's skills and knowledge is never truly complete, and I will work daily as a practitioner to ensure that my actions align with that. Below is an introduction to the 34 Competencies and each Domain. To learn more or see the artifacts that belong to that Domain, click the read more button.  

I hope you enjoy a peek into my journey so far. If you have any questions or would like to discuss the work, please feel free to contact me using the information on the Contact page. Thank you!
