Client Spotlight
Aria Mia Loberti
Star of the Netflix series, All the Light We Cannot See
"A blind lead portrayed by a blind actor. This is a significant leap forward to disability, inclusion, rights, and representation on the screen and beyond. I will never not feel the weight of that, and I will bear it proudly and use it as a catalyst for positive change, equity, and breaking down barriers."
- Aria, pictured with her black Lab guide Dog, Ingrid
