Jaylee Casetrano

I am Deaf. I was born in Los Angeles, California, and later moved to Grenada in the Caribbean, where I grew up. I graduated from Model Secondary School for the Deaf in Washington, D.C. I began my career as a day trader in the stock market in high school and continue to do so today. 

Day trading is not my only focus—boxing has been one of my favorite sports since I was a kid.  I have been training in it since I was 11 years old, and I still do. 

I started serving at a Deaf church when I was 13, but I only served for a short time. I decided to go back to serving in church during high school and now teach religion classes, which is my favorite part. I am also studying to become a minister in a ministry formation program in two years.
