There she found her three primary loves, Art, Theatrical Lighting, and Sign Language. After graduating from high school, Samantha attended college in Santa Barbara, CA, earning a degree in Art with a minor in Theatre. In her summers and post graduation, she attended college in San Diego County majoring in Sign Language Interpreting. While in Interpreting School, Samantha became involved in Musical Interpreting competitions. Those competitions lead to the instigation of her professional Musical Interpreting career. She moved from San Diego to Nashville in order to interpret music in none other than Music City, U.S.A. In 1999, Samantha and several Deaf Community members gathered together to create Gate Communications, a national not-for-profit Deaf service and ministry organization. After a decade of teaching in a local ITP, she turned her full time and attention to Gate. Over the years Samantha has interpreted alongside of the most famous names in the music industry, but her heart forever carries a passion for what happens off stage as an Interpreting Instructor and LD. Today she serves as the Executive Director of Gate Communications. Samantha presently travels the country teaching workshops and when possible travels outside the U.S. to work with the Foreign Deaf Community.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 268\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 8.5 x 5.51 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 20, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52588302991667,"sku":"9781491031261","price":50.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/DMvVodQBSa9781491031261.webp?v=1761623643","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/get-real-a-real-look-at-interpreting-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
