I grew up in the quaint town of Newton, Kansas, and completed my schooling at Newton High School. My passion for the medical field has always been strong, driving me initially into eye care. Eventually, I found my true calling in hearing care, and joining Sound Relief was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Each day, I take on the role of a Patient Care Coordinator, making sure our office hums along smoothly. For Fort Collins locals, I'm your first point of contact—quite literally the voice you hear on the phone!

I'm also the one who manages our schedule, collaborating closely with our doctors to ensure that patient care is seamless. Whether it's troubleshooting over the phone or handling minor repairs, if you’re visiting our Fort Collins clinic, you’re most likely speaking with me!

What I love most about my job is the sense of community we have. We're a small, tight-knit, family-owned practice, which allows me to witness, first-hand, the relief our patients experience—relief they once thought wasn't possible. The bonds I’ve built with colleagues and patients alike make coming to work something I genuinely look forward to.

Outside of work, I'm an outdoor enthusiast. You can often find me on road trips, hiking, snowboarding, or paddleboarding with my family and my dog, Bane. I've recently taken up gardening and small woodworking projects. Indoors, I enjoy cooking, reading, and playing card games.
