    Hello my name is Romona, I’m 18 years old and I have been watching Switched At Birth since the first episode and I’ve never missed one show. I’ve taken an ASL class my Sophomore year in high school and loved the deaf culture since then. My ASL teacher made a huge impact in my life and I now have a new set of eyes for what the really big problem is in today’s society. With her story that she has shared to all her students I’ve made a decision of becoming an interpreter and to hopefully share to everyone that children are becoming deaf and need help, which is why I am also becoming a teacher so I can share to my students that their is more out their that they can change as they grow. I would want my students and everyone around me to know that people become deaf every day and is having problems because not everyone knows ASL.
    I hope you consider me as being one of the cast, I would be grateful to be around such great people and to expand my ASL as I head off to college to begin my great new future that I have my head set on

  4. Renee Jagdeo

    Hi! My name is Renee and I am 12 years old, I am pretty small in size at 5 feet. I enjoy public speaking as well as acting, dancing, and singing. I wouldn’t say I’m AMAZING at the arts but believe that I could make it in the business with my personality and ambition. I have been in a few plays, with fairly challenging roles, which helped me realize that I have been able to take on different roles with different personalities efficiently. I think I would be considerable because although I don’t have much experience television wise, I think I could be an acceptable candidate. If needed :I am currently in grade 7 and I am Guyanese Black and Guyanese Indian. I have thick black curly hair, and dark brown eyes.

    PS. I LOVE SWITCHED AT BIRTH and am currently learning ASL and practicing at school

  5. taylor dudley

    I loved switched since 2011 Ive learn all the sign to asl im only 11 years old my best friend is deaf

  6. Michelle Salazar

    Not only have I supported Switched at Birth since the first episode aired; but I have taken ASL classes as an inspiration of this Admirable drama I watch daily. Learning to communicate with the deaf had been a great part of my life and has lead it’s way to my career choice. I’m glad to say my future will be dedicate to becoming an interpreter and teaching ASL in an Academy.
    I’m 18 years old and have been amazed with the production given to us (the audience). Please consider my interest in becoming part of the cast, I’d admire and be grateful to be around such fluent signers to improve my own as well as build new companions.
    Thank You .

    Dear Switched at Birth – ABC Family,

    I saw your casting call for the film, Switched At Birth – ABC Family and I would like to be considered to be one of the roles. This definitely sounds like an amazing project, and I felt that I connected. I strongly believe that I would be great for this film because I am deaf and my primary language is American Sign Language (ASL). I just completed acting for Deadly Affairs – Investigation Discovery by Sirens Media under Discovery Channel that will be released in late summer 2014.

    If you feel there is a mutual interest, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss with you about this position. Thank you for consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Age: 45 – (I look younger than my age)
    Weight: 105 lbs
    Height: 5′ 4″
    Eyes: hazel
    Hair: light brown/blonde

    Sincerely,
    Yaël

  33. Abibat Oketade

    Hi, I’m Abibat. I’m an African Amerian 12 year old who is entering the 7th grade. Thank the Lord! My family is from Nigeria, but I grew up in the U.S.A. We are also proud Muslims. I am a very diligent young girl who loves to embrace life and many of it’s wonders. I love to sing, dance, write, draw, and play. I am an exellerated student in my school, too. I feel that having a role in this show will give it a new kind of flare, especially if there is a African American Muslim actress starring in a North American tv show. It may sound strange, but I’m really interested in pursuing an acting career even though I do not have any experience. Ever since the fourth episode of Switched at Birth I knew acting was something I always wanted to do. Hopefully this will enhance my chance of pursuing this exciting career. Thank You.

    Sincerly,
    Abibat Oketade 🙂

  34. Julie Milunsky

    Hi Switched at Birth- ABC Family,
    My name is Julie and I am 18 years old. After my first year of learning to sign, my deaf teacher requested that I be his interpreter/teaching assistant and class tutor for his ASL 1 class the following year. It has been such a privilege to be teaching along side my mentor and having the opportunity to communicate and learn in this way. I absolutely love watch Switched at Birth! I have always loved acting, singing, and dancing, and have recently found a way to combine all three with my signing by interpreting some of my favorite songs into expressive ASL. My teacher said that he has never felt and seen music this way and that when I sign it looks like I am dancing with my hands. In fact, he gave me the sign name “dancing Julie”- (with the J acting as the moving part of the sign for dance).
    Although I was originally trained in ballet and gymnastics, physical limitations led me to ballroom dancing, musical theatre, and the amazing world of American Sign Language. I also have studied Hebrew for 9 years.

    In the coming year, I will be taking a gap year (between high school and college) to pursue acting in film and TV. This show has particularly spoken to me because I have felt different my entire life as I’ve had to overcome many obstacles that other kids have not faced. I feel that this is the perfect show for me! At times when I’ve needed an opportunity to rest and recover, TV shows like yours have allowed me to feel like I am a part of another community. I would love this chance to give back by acting on Switched at Birth.

    Age: 18

    Hi!

    My name is Rose So and I’ve recently become interested in acting. Currently, in college, going into my junior year. I’ve just gotten hooked on this show and I love how it uses people who are deaf “in real life.” It adds a raw-ness and real-ness to the show and makes it unique.
    I’m hardworking and determined and very energetic. I’m pretty outgoing so I don’t think I’ll have a very difficult time getting to know the Switched at Birth cast, if I were to ever join that family.

    Thanks for this unique opportunity to try applying to be a part of this show!

I could do anything you asked me for, the show has made an impact on my life because it showed it is possible to do anything. Hopefully you can read this! Have a good day!

    Hey, ABC Family! My name is Hailey, as you could see. I finished my first at College, USU Eastern. It’s in this small town called Price, UT. I know what you’re thinking…Utah. I should tell you that it’s somewhere I’ve lived for a while…a lot of great actors/actresses have lived here as well. Julianne Hough, Matthew Davis, Patrick Fugit, Katie Cockrell. These are just some of the people who have lived there. I have sandy blonde hair and blue eyes. Right as of now, I’m majoring in Psychology. But growing up, I felt like I should act. I was one of those girls who would act out plays by my self. I never minded it, it always helped me to memorize things. I took a year of ASL in high school and I understand it a lot better then I could I sign it, that’s how a lot of people are. With practice I could be a whole lot better. You want a new face, I know I could be that girl who can help you out. I know what I want to do. I want to act. I want to show people that if you push yourself, you can get where you want to be. Give me a chance, and I’ll show you that I will be the best. You won’t regret it.

    Hi, my name is Han yi Wang and I’m 11 years old. Although I never took acting classes, I’m always confident when it comes to acting. Since I’m always shy, i never got to show my talents to anyone. I would like to take this chance to overcome my fears and also experience what it’s like to act in front of so many people. I know that there are a lot of people auditioning, and most of them might be better choices than me, but I really want to become an actress. I would like to show everyone my talent if it’s possible.

  54. Beth Hernandez

    Hey ABC Family!

    I can tell you that I am not an experienced actor, I have never been on Broadway or have ever even been extra. I can tell you though, I can act. I have a knack for it, no matter what it is I need to act out, I can do it.
    As a child, I was born half deaf and went through six years of speech therapy though I never learned ASL. I still have some issues with my hearing and speaking but overall, everything is well. Currently I am putting myself through college in Missouri for a criminal psychology major.
    Honestly, I’m not here to say I’m the best person for an acting position because I’m sure there’s more qualified individuals, but I’m ready for a new beginning and whatever is thrown my way, I will do my best to accomplish it and make the people who employ and believe in me proud. I know I don’t have any kind of acting résumé nor do I have a way to make it to you to even audition for a part, but I’m hoping that maybe this will be my new beginning.
    I hope all is well with the series and I can’t wait for the new seasons to come out! Good luck and Godspeed with all you do.

  55. shellby

I was born in Jacksonville Florida and raised in Madison Florida, I really want to be on switched at birth more than anything. even if I am an extra(: please consider using me?! thanks, Shellby..

  56. Meghan Tobin

    I’m Meghan I was born and raised in Florida. I love Switched At Birth and it would be my dream to be on it. I’m trying to become an actress its another one of my dreams. ABC Family would be perfect for me to start acting. I’m 15 years old and people at school don’t think I could be an actress but I know if I try hard enough I cant be. Thank you so much for you time. It really means a lot!

  57. Kevin Keadle

    Hello,
    I have been born and raised in Georgia. I played baseball all my life. I also played football and wrestled. I grew up hunting,fishing, and riding atvs. I’m about to turn 22 years old. I’m 5’9 165 lbs with an athletic build. I have a desire to start a new chapter in my life and feel I can offer something to the entertainment industry. I do not desire to be famous, meet famous people, or live an extravagant life. I would like others to see qualities I see in myself, which i wouldn’t have if it weren’t for the people around me. I grow and learn at my own pace, but soak in all i can from others. I understand the emotions viewers get from watching any ABC Family shows, and feel i can use that same emotion to draw that out in viewers. I have learned to be self aware and aware in situations i’m in in life. Acting is an aspiration of mine, but so is living life. If the opportunity is there i will seize it. All I can do is put a little of myself out there. If this is read I am truly grateful, and please see me in which I’m seen not in which i see myself.
    Thank you,
    Kevin Keadle

  59. Tracie M

    Hello ABC family,

    I have always wanted to be an extra in a TV show. I always loved to watch your show. It just is a great show that I would be interested in watching and feels like I’m a part of this because it is very related to what I have experienced while I was growing up. I always have been the only deaf in the family but it doesn’t bother me.

    For that reason, I just wanted to be a part of this to experience. I work with deaf students at the high school and that gives me a reason to try something different. I have always dream of being on a TV show with the deaf cast members.

    I am a mother of two sons and a loving husband. I’m studying to get my teaching credentials and be a teacher for the D/HH program. I thought it’d be a cool way to build my resume along with this experience as an extra on the TV show.

    I’m in my 40’s and I usually look much younger than my actual age!

    So if you ever need an extra, please do email me!

    Thank you,
    Tracie M

  60. Yoshi Medina

    My name is Yoshi Medina, yes im serious. I think my name might help me in my career to come. I am 14 years old
    Height is 5 foot 7
    weigh about 143lbs
    My hair is dark brown and semi wavy as well as very thick
    I have big light brown eyes
    Also i have braces

    I think you should consider me to be a part of this spectacular show because for one i am very very passionate about acting and will do whatever it takes to better it.I have some background in sign language as i have taken a few classes before. I want to entertain people and be a part of something great as well: which is what this show is. i am a fan of the show and love what it teaches the viewers and id love to give that effect to others: i want for the viewers to see what its like from whatever ever character i play. I am great around people and adapt quickly. Charismatic is a word id use to describe myself, i’m not saying this because I want to sound better then others but i know there’s more to acting in a show then just the showing up . Being part of a show and especially one as good as this one requires for the actors to attract as good attention as and I want to do that for Switched at Birth. a show which i am in love way by the way, im not kissing up but anyways if i do not catch your eye i just wanted to thank everyone fr it because it so great in so many ways it is an incomparable beauty .I am also, a fresh face and viewers may be interested. hopefully you will consider me for a part in the show and it will be my breakthrough, if not i don’t min because the show is amazing and everyone involved in it. Just being a part of it would be a dream come true for me. I am willing to move for the part and live close to LA.

    Thank you, i hope you consider me for a part, any at all in Switched At Birth.

    My name is Ashanti Scott, I’m 19 years old going to be 20 in May. I think you guys could consider me for your show because I’m also deaf and I love this show. It amazes me how hearing people also want to learn sign from the show.

  64. natalia cruz

    Hi i am a ordinary girl from Brownsville, Texas named Natalia Cruz. Not a lot of people have a deaf mother as their mom, but i do. it has always been my dream to support my mom cause we face many challenges. And i have always wanted to be an actress since i was 9. So why not pick a girl who knows sign-language for as long as she can remember.
    I have dark brown hair with blonde high-lights, short hair; 12 years old;brown eyes;5’3;hispanic.
    i can act out a girl from age 12-15

  67. Angela Avonce

    Hello Switched at Birth – ABC Family,

    I would like to thank you for the opportunity for this dream role!
    I am 14 years old (15 in August). I have soft brown eyes and wavy curly hair that is medium length when its natural and long when its straight.
    When I watched Switched at Birth, I immediately fell in love with the show because it incorporates the Deaf culture – which I am greatly fascinated by. I am taking ASL at my school and when I first started learning ASL, I picked up a handful of signs from the show.
    I know many signs in ASL and I am a fast learner. I love signing because it feels natural; I am very comfortable signing.
    I love acting and signing and I think this would be a great opportunity for both of us! My first language is English but I speak Spanish at an intermediate level – I come from a Spanish speaking family. My mom is Puerto Rican and my dad is Mexican.

    Thank you for the opportunity and I hope you find who you are looking for!

  68. Niyah Thomas

    Hi I am Niyah. Call me kitty its my nickname. Well I am thirteen, I have brown eyes, blonde and red hair, and I am 5’8. I have my own unique personality. Agencies always tell me I am super bubbly. I look a bit older than I am which has always been a bit of a set back. It does not affect my modeling or acting though. I find interest in rock bands, tattoos, colorful hair, and differentiality. I can play many parts.

    I think I should be picked because there is no better time than the time we have now. We need to live and be young and I have dreamed of this and I want to start young and be a great influence on the entertainment world. Also I love this show the way the conflict us just right. I even learnt a little bit of sign language before and from this.

    Age: 13
    DOB: 7/13/00
    Height:4″11′
    Hair: Brown hair
    Eyes: Brown
    Weight: 122

    HEY!!! My name is Mycah and I would love to be on this show. I have been watching it since it first came out and I feel in love with it. I know a little bit of sign language but I am still taking this class in school. I have a very outstanding personality and I love to interact with people. I don’t care what people think of me so I don’t have a hard time showing off on screen or off. Acting is my dream and I am going to tell you about my acting career.

    When I was 3 years old I was in my first play at my church with a man named T.J. Hempfield. Who is the writer of the movie Perilous Times. Around those years I took many dance class and I still do hip hop to this day. I did a lot of more tiny plays at my church and sang too. When I 12 years old I did two plays at the same time. I was in Little Mermaid as a coral aires and The Sound of Music as Sister Berthe. The most recent plays that I was in was Hairspray as Little Inez and The Cross and The Light as a towns child. That play was at the music hall in Detroit, Michigan and it was very fun.

    I think that I would be perfect for this show and I could really impress you. I have been to many talent agencies and I have also been to The Event in Orlando, Florida and got 4 callbacks from there. I want to see where my life will take me and if I can have my big break. When I see talent agencies they all say I have a baby face and look like a 9 year old. Which, I know, is a good thing in the acting business because you can last longer on TV like Miranda Cosgrove on iCarly. I hope will think about me for this TV show.
