A nurse with albinism and vision impairment
Ashley and Matt
Meet Ashley and Matt, a married couple with albinism. On their YouTube Channel (over 1.1K subscribers), they share information and perspectives on albinism and vision impairment along with some comic relief and "a regular dose of silly". Matt is a nurse and in a video called, "What we do for a living: Jobs and Careers", he shares candid information about becoming a nurse with albinism and offers some advice for others interested in a career in nursing. Matt has worked in hospitals and now works as a supervisor in home health. A magnifier and pocket organizer are essential for his practice.
