Alexa shares what it's like to grow up with deaf parents, how she became fluent in three languages, and why she chose to pursue a career in interpretation—despite initially resisting the idea. Together, they explore everything from the emotional art of facial expression in sign language to interpreting difficult phone calls, hilarious job moments, and what it really means to serve the Deaf community.
