An auditory neuroscience expert witness, this Ph.D. researcher has more than 25 years of experience studying the neural mechanisms involved in hearing, auditory perception, and speech processing. Her work focuses on how the brain encodes and interprets sound, including the effects of age-related hearing loss on auditory processing and communication. She provides expert consultation in matters involving auditory neuroscience and hearing-related conditions.

The expert holds a Doctor of Philosophy in Biology, a Master of Science in Human Biodynamics, and a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Physiology. She has conducted extensive scientific research on auditory learning, auditory signal processing, and neural mechanisms underlying language and speech recognition. Her academic and research background supports her work analyzing how neurological systems process auditory signals and how disruptions in these processes affect communication and cognitive function.

Her research and analytical work in neuroscience centers on several areas relevant to auditory perception and communication disorders. One area involves auditory processing and neural encoding of sound, including how auditory signals are represented in the brain and how these processes support language acquisition and speech perception. Another area of expertise concerns age-related hearing loss and its neurological effects on communication, including how degraded auditory input alters speech recognition and cognitive processing of language. Her work also examines communication disorders and atypical auditory processing, including research on autism and related conditions in which neural mechanisms of sound perception and language processing differ from typical auditory development.
