I am a service maintenance worker for the City of Bakersfield and a coach for AYSO soccer region 181 Northeast Bakersfield. I have been married to my wife Tammy for the past 18 years and we have 3 daughters. All 3 of my daughters play soccer and my wife and I coach all 3 of their teams. My youngest daughter is Deaf. We as a family have all learned American Sign Language (ASL). Whoever reads my bio please consider learning ASL, it will open a world to you that perhaps you never knew was there. 95% of all deaf children are born to hearing parents and 98% of the parents never learn to sign.
