“Signing with Khy, a Sign Language Guide”
Today we wanted to give a 𝘚𝘏𝘖𝘜𝘛 𝘖𝘜𝘛 to one of our students, Khyiana Tate! 🎉
Khyiana was just featured on Fox 2 Detroit taking about her new book “Signing with Khy, a Sign Language Guide”. She wanted to create something that deaf and people of color could relate to. She believes that everyone should learn sign language!
Khyiana is not a new face to the Yunion, as she is also a part of our “Girls Changing the Game” Stem Drone Program. She is truly one of the most committed, smart, and determined young ladies we know. 💪
