Lark defies the box that society placed him in. Despite being profoundly deaf, he has defied all odds to become a dancer. He explains to the audience that anyone can do whatever they want to if they set their mind to it. Lark is a deaf dancer, and has been for most of his life. Lark enjoys dancing and has a strong desire to support those in the community with disabilities. Lark speaks locally at elementary, middle, and high schools to students about how to deal with fellow students who differ from them, and how everyone is the same, yet different. Lark will major in zoology and hopes to go into veterinary medicine, with a minor in dance. Lark would like to thank his family and friends for providing constant support and for helping him get to where he is today. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
