I have been with the DGS Audiology practice for 10 years working along side of Darlene. I enjoy watching our patient's life improve when they are able to hear what they had been missing.  It impacts their life in a positive way that is wonderful to see. The ability to help someone to improve their hearing is gratifying.  When I am not helping to care for our patients you will find me at the beach or with my grandchildren. I look forward to serving you and meeting your hearing healthcare needs.
