HearingLife Audiologist

When I was 5 years old, my parents found out that three of their children had hearing loss.

I would have to lean in and read lips and make sure I was sitting at the front of the classroom in order to track what was going on.

It was when I got to college that I realised that those strategies were not going to get me where I needed to be. I needed to either do something proactively about my hearing or go home.

When I got hearing aids it was life-changing. I was hearing things in my world for the first time.

Leslie really loves what she does. She is empathetic and compassionate, and she really cares about people. She knows first-hand about hearing loss, and she brings that into her work.

One of the best parts of my job is when I turn the hearing aids on, and people are hearing well for the first time in probably decades. Their eyes just open up. Any day where I can help somebody improve their quality of life: that is a great day.
