[nfb-talk] Looking for engineers who are deaf/blind

[Jim Portillo]

Hi everyone,

 

Does anyone know how to get in touch with John Miller or anyone else in the
Science and Engineering division?

I'm doing a bit of networking for someone who is interesting in connecting
with an engineer.Preferably one who happens to be deaf/blind.

This person has Usher's Syndrome, and the blindness aspect is fairly new to
him.  His hearing loss is somewhere between mild and severe, and he's got
tinnitus that he's dealing with as well.  He graduated from college as an
engineer but isn't sure how he can do the job now with his double issues.

 

Anyway, if anyone can direct me to John Miller or anyone in the Science and
Engineering division, I'd appreciate it.

Jim
