This is a much anticipated club meeting delayed from January due to winter illness and then the pandemic. We are so happy that Ramya will make time for us and share her interesting experience as well as facilitate a very engaging event on Zoom now. Everybody is welcome to join us. It’s gonna be a fun evening!
Facilitator Biography:
Ramya Amuthan is currently a Host and Producer at Accessible Media Inc (AMI). She works with the live afternoon show team for the daily entertainment and lifestyle audio show called Kelly and Company. Her
work involves meeting fascinating people, hearing their stories, and facilitating conversations that bring out the messages wanting to be told. She is also the Co-creator of Adventures, a chapter of the Canadian Council of the Blind, based in Toronto, offering and facilitating opportunities for blind and low vision individuals to take part in daring physical activities.
For Ramya there is always time for hobbies: singing – for herself and sometimes others, dancing – mostly Brazilian Zouk, and brushing up on her culinary skills. Here’s some quotes from Ramya: “Life is easier when you’re flexible,
even when the world is not.” “It’s okay to feel bad sometimes, but
you can’t stay there forever.” “If opportunities come, explore them.”
Agenda:
Ramya will share her experiences making adult decisions, like moving out at 18 years of age, choosing colleges, jobs, and the failures and successes. She will also talk about her work at AMI: the best parts, the challenges, how she learns to do her job better every day, what she has learnt from others, and what others can learn from her. Why does Ramya feel amazing about where she is? Will she be there forever? Let’s find it out!
Somewhere along the way, Ramya will facilitate Group Vocal Exercises. Hopefully, through fun vocal warm-ups, Learning to project our voice, speaking with inflection, staying true to our voice, and with Ramya’s public speaking tips, everyone of us will speak like a radio show host, or a singer, when we give our own 1-2 minute presentations, sharing anything we’d love to share about our lives!
