Hello
I am a 1st year Doctorate of Audiology Student at University of Arizona and will graduate in 2026. I attended Louisiana State University and earned a B.A. in Communication Disorders with a double minor in English and Psychology.

About Me
At age 5, I was diagnosed with a moderate to severe hearing loss in both ears, more specifically Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct Syndrome. In high school, I spent much of my time answering the question, "What are those?" (Referring to my hearing aids). More than that, though, I had to explain to teachers the accommodations I needed such as a seat close to the front. My situation forced me to develop initiative and self-advocacy. Advocacy is one aspect of Audiology that I greatly admire and is, in fact, the reason I chose to pursue Audiology.
