Have you Been to NAMM? Know the risk of loud noise exposure
Yes I know it has been a few weeks since my last blog post. I’ve been busy doing audiology stuff so no worries.

I’m Definitely Thankful for Hearing!

Plenty of Matchmakers for Audiologists!
My profession and job have given me the ability to have many “adoptive grandparents”. Like all grandparents my patients want what is best for me. A majority of my patients have been married for many years, some of them close to 70! Because of their years of being happily married, they are more than willing […]
My “Why” into Audiology
My sister, Diana, when she was a director with Mary Kay she would always talk about her “why”. Why is she doing something, why did she choose something, what is her larger purpose? As I started reflecting on my career and my path, I found I had a why too. Does the “why” change? I […]
