Kari Taylor

Treasurer Elect

​

Kari Taylor was born deaf to deaf parents. After being placed for adoption to hearing parents soon after birth, it was not until age 4 that her hearing loss was identified. Raised in an oral communication home, she was exposed to sign language immediately entering preschool. She is a Behavior Analyst that specializes in providing behavioral support for kiddos who are deaf/hard of hearing and/or have vision losses. She hopes she can share her experiences as a DHH adult with many families as possible. Kari currently lives in Sycamore, IL with her family (3 daughters are CODA).
