She continues to teach graduate courses for preservice teachers at Lamar University part-time and works on various projects for the National Technical Institute for the Deaf at Rochester Institute of Tech- nology. One of her projects involves working on MODE webinars, produced in American Sign Language (ASL) for teachers of the deaf who teach mathematics. As a certified ASL interpreter, she is passionate about supporting deaf education. Dawn also spends as much time as possible with her husband, daughter, son, daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren.
