We are excited to have Gabriel Lopez Kafati on our podcast to discuss his experience with RP or Retinitis Pigmentosa. Gabriel received the diagnosis of RP when he was 9 years old and discusses losing his sight as he grew up. He is a great advocate for being able to do anything that you would like to do and has a rich educational and work background. He has great advice for both people with an RP diagnosis as well as parents and family members. He is currently helping students with disabilities at Miami-Dade College, is teaching a class at the college in HR, and recently was voted onto the Board of Directors at the American Council of the Blind (ACB). In addition he is an integral part of BPI (Blind LGBT Pride International) the special-interest affiliate of ACB and has a podcast through BPI call Pride Connection.
