Meet The SEA Team
Our team works diligently to provide our clients with the best possible experience when it comes to all of their captioning needs and requests. We have very different professional backgrounds, yet share the same desire of providing communication access for all. Besides these women, we also work with a large group of well-trained freelance captioners that provide real-time captions and CART services for our clients. Our experienced team of human captioners delivers industry-leading accuracy, ensuring every word is captured and delivered flawlessly.
We are ready to connect with you and provide a complimentary demo of our services!!!

CEO/Founder | International English Realtime Captioner
I have been an English real-time captioner for almost two decades. For most of my professional career I provided CART services on-site. But times change, and the last few years have moved the profession into remote services.
I continue to provide CART and Closed Captioning Services onsite, but these usually require traveling out-of-state... and since I enjoy meeting people and traveling, I'm always up for it!!!
I am also a trained social worker. I attended Texas Woman's University and University of Texas at Arlington. For about 7 years of my life, I was a mental health provider during the day, turned captioner during nights and weekends.
Giving back to my community is something that keeps me energized in life, hence why both of my professions overlap in that sense. My life plan is to continue to live a life of giving back and demonstrating gratitude for all I've received.

Bilingual Hybrid Administrative Assistant
I am a graduate of Texas State University and have lived in Texas my entire life. My life goal is to obtain my J.D. and help all those in need of fair legal representation.
It is in my nature to attempt to help people and be the interruption when I see inequities. And this is what brings me to the captioning world.
During school I found myself needing accommodations through the Disabilities Department and I had the unique opportunity to see how we are all different and need varying accommodations to be able to succeed in life.
I decided to work for the D/deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (HoH) community because it is the population I can relate to the most.
I am a hearing person... but "I can't hear well without my closed captions."

Hybrid Administrative Assistant
I'm a student at the University of Tulsa, currently studying Kinesiology and Entrepreneurship.
Throughout my life, I've taken joy in empowering others to make a difference. My passion for health and wellness is balanced by a keen interest in business development and innovation.
This unique blend translates into my role as an administrative assistant at SEA, where I thrive on providing efficient and enthusiastic support for our team while working behind the scenes to bridge the gap between the D/deaf, Hard-of-Hearing and hearing communities.
