BIO
I work primarily in clinical education, working with audiology graduate students in direct patient care. My primary clinical area of interest is in vestibular diagnostics and rehabilitation. I work closely with our Physical Therapy and Otolaryngology departments here at the University of Utah to help diagnosis and treat patients with dizziness related to the inner ear. Beyond dizziness, I work regularly with hearing evaluations, hearing aids, including working with telehealth at our clinic in Price, Utah, helping the mining population in the eastern Utah region with hearing aid services. I also work with patients suffering from tinnitus, a very common symptom of our noise-exposed populations. I work with patients to evaluate and treat their tinnitus symptoms through evidence-based symptom management.
