Hi there, I’m Adam. I’ve worked as a Real-Time Captionist at RIT for nine years. That means I’ve roamed the campus attending different classes with Deaf/hard of hearing students. I transcribe what the professor and other students are saying, as they follow along on an iPad. Think court stenography, but for the classroom.
I’ve captioned all sorts of courses from anthropology, to calculus, to psychology. One summer I was fortunate enough to caption for a student on a study abroad trip to Croatia, Austria, and Germany. I still miss the food.
Now I’m pursuing my master’s degree in Professional Studies at RIT, where I have stitched together a program with coursework in UX design, digital marketing, and project management.
I’m trying to put these new skills to good use by volunteering with a small organization working to spread the word about a new medical clinic in South Sudan.
Feel free to check out my LinkedIn page and resume below. Please reach out if you’re interested in collaborating on a project. Thanks for reading.
