Meet Lauren, a teacher of the deaf, and an adult with hearing loss.

Lauren shares her story about officially being diagnosed with hearing loss at the age of 20.

As a child she knew that her left ear didn’t “work” like her right ear, but never knew the extent until she randomly took a hearing test just to help model a hearing test for a hesitant student while working as a teacher aid.

That hearing test led her to make an appointment with an audiologist, and learning about her hearing loss inspired her to continue her education and become a teacher of the deaf.

Lauren will inspire you and your child to have a more empowered life.

If your child has received the same diagnosis you are in the right place. I welcome you into our tribe.
