#132: Interview - Ariella Larson

The love of an amazing mom and close friends, encouraging words from a beloved grandfather, caring counselors, insightful teachers, and the sheer tenacity in her soul, helped my friend, Ariella Larson, find her way through the darkness of depression and debilitating ADHD, to discover her passion and purpose serving others as an ASL interpreter...and blooming, even when she didn't like where she was planted.

In addition to being an ASL (American Sign Language) interpreter, Arie, is a hobby artist and life-long learner. She was raised in a Jewish family and is the youngest of three children. She is most proud of graduating from college with a bachelor's degree, despite initially dropping out.
