Justin is a Deaf actor and writer based in Los Angeles. He comes from a three-generation Deaf family, and American Sign Language is his first language. Acting has been Justin’s foremost passion, but he has also rediscovered his love for storytelling, especially when auditioning for Deaf roles written by non-Deaf writers. This realization prompted him to recognize the dire need for Deaf writers to create authentic Deaf characters and stories, and Justin has been exploring this passion by writing and performing his own work.
