If you have never seen Judi perform, you may not comprehend how she can enhance your enjoyment of music through the medium of sign language. Judi expresses phrases like "flying monkey" or "lullaby for a weary world" so vividly that she adds new meaning to the words you hear, whether or not you know ASL. Transcending the constraint of performing in a language that most of her audience does not fully understand, she achieves the artistic grace of Charlie Chaplin or Marcel Marceau while communicating at a profound level.

The grace, beauty, and humor of her silent poetry earned her the Pegasus Best Performer Award in 2006.

In the words of Cat Faber:

Judi makes us laugh.
Judi makes us cry.
Her face is bright
And her hands are light
And we love to watch them fly.

Songs take shape and form,
And from her stance they shine,
And the lyrics feel
More alive and real
As she echoes them in sign.
