"As a professor who is blind, I believe that I bring a unique perspective to the classroom. From the day I enter the classroom, my vulnerability is present, thus inviting others to be vulnerable as well, which in my experience is essential in the dual process of teaching and learning. My classes are rich with discussion, curiosity, and inquisition. I set the stage recognizing the diversity of learners, the challenges our unique social identities bring forward, and the strengths that come in the face of adversity. In this way, the classroom becomes a safe space to ask questions, share perspectives and become comfortable interacting across difference."
"Dr. OK is one of the most resourceful professors this campus has. Her passion and expertise in the field allow for students to obtain knowledge while knowing the person in front of them actually cares and knows them as an individual and not just part of a cohort."
