When I was a senior in high school my English teacher suggested that I look into Speech & Hearing as a possible career choice. Wow, what a great suggestion Miss Carlton gave me back in 1948. Once I learned about this gratifying and exciting work I have never looked back. Although I have worked as a Speech and Hearing Therapist and then as an Audiologist for over 60 years, I have never lost my enthusiasm for this work.

We moved from Buffalo, NY in 2002 to the Kansas City area. Four little reasons for our move at that time are shown here (we now have five plus two great grandchildren).

When we moved to KC we found a severe lack of APD services. Since 2004 we have been providing high quality APD services to help meet the crucial need in this area.
