Kellina is a deaf coach and advocate, a podcast speaker, a best selling author, and a passionate entrepreneur on a mission to help young adults with disabilities achieve their goals while also educating others about the deaf community. What makes her story even more incredible is that Kellina is actually a hard of hearing person who lost 100% of her hearing at the young age of 4.
Being hard of hearing hasn’t stopped her from pursuing her dreams including gaining her bachelor’s degree in Psychology from York University and post-graduate certificate in Mental Health and Addiction, becoming a life coach, and an Amazon best selling author with her first book, “Everyday I Am Just Deaf.”

Kellina encourages everyone that no matter what your circumstances are, you can have everything you want in life. She continues to overcome the many challenges of living in a hearing world. Her message is clear, “never let one person stop you from achieving your dreams.”
