I grew up with deaf teachers, and I thought all deaf children should have exposure to deaf educators.

I want to use my celebrity for good.

Right after college, I was trying to figure out what to do. Teach? Act? Model? Do PR for the deaf community? And now I'm doing all I dreamed of and more.

I was doing a little modeling on the side. Then 'ANTM' found me on social media, and it pretty much flipped my life around, all for the better.

It's one of the reasons I want to do 'Dancing with the Stars': it's a platform to educate.

From Nyle DiMarco

Right before 'ANTM,' I was offered a recurring role for the TV show 'Switched at Birth.' I had to pick one because both of the shows were happening at the same time. I couldn't choose, though, so decided to let my dog Foxy decide. She picked 'ANTM!'
