I’m Kenley Kohls (hearing) and it’s a pleasure to meet you! I’m a senior studying cell biology and am an avid collector of facts, stories, and odd statues (the randomer the better). I’m from Colorado and started learning ASL in high school, eventually serving an ASL mission in Portland, Oregon. When I’m not in the lab you can find me writing poems, playing Just Dance, or here at ASL club!

My name is Emma Hunting, I'm a senior studying Art History and Curatorial Studies with a minor in Design Thinking. My aunt is Deaf and so I grew up learning a little ASL, but it wasn't till I came to BYU that I took my first official class. I learned so much! In my free time I love to sculpt with clay, draw, and watch movies. I'm so excited to practice ASL with you this year!
Hello friends! I graduated from BYU this last April, my major was Experience Design & Management (ExDM), and now I'm working on a masters degree in Instructional Psychology & Technology (IP&T). I've always been fascinated with ASL, and I finally had the opportunity to learn it here at BYU in 2021.
