About

I am Kristen Baptista, a Junior at Bridgewater State University, and graduate of Bristol Community College with my Associates degree in Deaf Studies Interpreting. I have had my sights set on becoming a Speech and Language Pathologist and working with the Hard of Hearing, since I was just a young girl in pre-school and will be sure to follow through with that dream. I currently work full time as a Teachers Assistant in a Special Education classroom where I am gaining experience for my future career, while practicing my skills on a daily basis.
