As a researcher, audiologist and bilateral cochlear implant recipient, I have accrued a great deal of experience working with adult and pediatric hearing-impaired populations. I maintain a keen appreciation for the multi-disciplinary approach in research needed to forward rehabilitation for individuals with hearing-impairment aided by cochlear implants. Interest in cochlear and auditory implants developed as a result of working in its research as well as intraoperative surgical assignments while working clinically.
