View Profile

Hay everyone! I’m Hailey, a visually impaired tutor here on SHW. I like to tutor cyber security, English, basic math, music, and awareness sessions about scams, being blind, and pride events. I’m part of the LGBTQ community, and had a friend die do to a romance scam. So now it’s my mission to bring awareness, help people and be me. And me is a sarcastic feminist.
