Darla is the perfect representation of “it's never too late to learn something new”. She went back to college in her late 30s to take a step of faith in learning a new language and profession. After her first community class she was hooked and knew this was where she was meant to be and what she was meant to do.

Darla has been a sign language interpreter for 22 years holding her state’s highest interpreting certification and national certification in educational interpreting. She has interpreted in a variety of settings including community, video relay, educational and religious. Darla brings a unique perspective with her years of expertise and variety of settings she has worked in.

Personally, Darla has been married for 39 years and LOVES to travel. She would like to share, she has two beautiful daughters, Meredith and Hilary, and three amazing grandchildren. (Editor's note: And yes, that Meredith is me. She blessed me with one of the greatest gifts, ASL.)
