Brendan Hlibok discusses how we need to view people with disabilities as equals to learn from their unique perspectives.

Brendan Hlibok is a junior at Centennial High School. He loves math and engineering and, as of now, seeks to pursue a career in aerospace engineering. He is passionate about sports and plays on the football and lacrosse team. He is the hearing child of two deaf parents and has grown up among two different cultures: the hearing and the deaf. Throughout his life, he has been exposed to the different experiences of people with disabilities which has inspired him to explore the ways in which humans can move towards a more accessible and equal world for everyone.
