Part 2 of episode 3

This week, I (Jesse Fung) sat down with Salvador Villa, president of TABS (Texas Association for Blind Students), and talked about the organization TABS (Texas Association for Blind Students), what goes into being a leader, and a bit of football.

In this week's episode I had a conversation with Christopher Meyer. We talked about what it's like to pursue a professional career with visual impairment, the role of mentors and the importance of mentoring. In addition, we discussed non-profits. 

A thank you to Jacob Pellegrino.

This is my first EPISODE!!! I am very excited to bring you this conversation that I had with Lei Gaab. In this episode, we discussed how there's a lot more to think about with college transition for the blind and visually impaired. An interesting topic I personally wanted to find out was the differences between born with blindness versus someone developing blindness later in life. AND FINALLY... high school! Everybody loves high school, Find out what's it was like for visually impaired students.
