For Sharon Xabregas, she was born deaf and upon entering the workforce, Sharon found herself in environments that didn’t meet her needs.
This experience inspired her to create change for future generations in the Auslan community by founding Sign Hear: a deaf-owned organisation providing support to families and individuals who are Deaf or hard of hearing. Sign Hear partners with other businesses helping create inclusive workplaces for employees who are faced with difficulty hearing.
