SAN DIEGO, California - A crowd of more than 1,300 fell silent as 13-year-old Kamila Carter told her story of being raised by deaf parents from two different countries and how she crosses US-China barriers in the world of sounds and silence.

To communicate with her father, mother and grandmother, Kamila already had learned three languages before beginning to study Mandarin. A 7th grade student at Tierra del Sol Middle School, she was the youngest speaker at the 2019 National Chinese Language Conference in San Diego in California.

On a Friday's panel, Student Study Abroad Experience: Impact and Best Practices, Kamila spoke about conquering her fears to travel to China alone.
