Howdy! I am very pleased and excited to be at your service as your audiologist at NewSound Hearing Center! I am a Board Certified Audiologist, am passionate about helping people hear better and have been doing so for 20+ years. I graduated with a BBA in Marketing from Texas A&M University and later attended the University of Texas in Austin where I obtained a Master’s and Ph.D. in Comm. Sci & Disorders – Audiology.

I fell in love with Burnet and the Texas Hill country as a child while spending summers with my grandparents on Lake Buchanan. I later moved to Burnet in order to provide my four children the opportunity to grow up in paradise. To quote one of my sons, “It’s Saturday every day here!” After working extensively in the field of audiology in surrounding counties, I am excited to have the opportunity to help people hear better in my own hometown!
