Jin Park

I'm a Korean-American currently residing in Fairfield, CA with my wife and two sons. I've been married for over 15 years and all family members use American Sign Language (ASL) for communication.

I was born and raised in Korea and grew up as the only deaf member in an all-hearing family. My mother, three brothers and one sister all live in Seoul, Korea.

I was born hearing. As an infant I developed a fever and illness and became deaf as a result. I began learning Korean Sign Language (KSL) at eight years old when I started attending Seoul School for the Deaf in Korea where I graduated from high school. My parents and family did not use KSL with me. Some family members used writing and a few home signs for communication.

I immigrated to the United States in 1991 and began taking college classes studying ASL, art, AutoCAD, drafting, Photoshop, and majoring in Architecture with the use of interpreting services for all classes.

I enjoy Northern California and associating with friends from the Deaf community in this area.
