About the Jessica
Diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentsoa in 1993, I didn't know much about RP or
blindness. I didn't know I was losing vision. I started my rehab training my
sophomore year of high school. While in college early 2002 I started working on a
small side website to keep me busy during the summer. The project was about
braille at the time although with the feedback and encouragement I got, I opted to
extend the website. In 2004 I extended the website to other areas as a place where
those needing information quickly on the topic of blindness can get to it. Since then
the website has evolved and changed multiple times to keep up with current
information and websites.
