My patients are always asking me what made me want to become an audiologist. I'll be the first to tell them it wasn't something I was dreaming of when I was a kid. I thought I was going to be the next Michael Jordan like most normal kids my age. The truth is, I had no idea what audiology even was until the end of my sophomore year of college. Up that that point, I was wandering around aimlessly in college using up mom and dad's tuition on classes that were taking me nowhere. It was then that a professor helped me focus on what my interests were and where I could utilize my potential. I took a class in Hearing Science and suddenly everything seemed to make sense.
