I grew up in Pennsylvania, and it was while attending a class called “Introduction to Communication Disorders” that I knew audiology was the right path for me. I started volunteering in the audiology departments in the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh before I even applied to graduate school! 

I wear a lot of hats around the office, but I primarily see patients and do my best to improve their lives with tinnitus management, hearing loss treatment, and auditory processing disorder help. I also do a lot of behind-the-scenes work running the practice, including participating in several audiology-related activities that require a few virtual meetings during the week. 

One of the greatest joys of my work is helping people, something I’ve always known I wanted to do. Seeing them smile as a result of my hard work means so much! 

Outside of the office, I love to spend time with my friends and family and explore trails outside. I also do distance swimming, running, and biking, along with taking my dogs to run wild at the dog park!
