SUMMARY:A Fireside Chat with Audiology Students and Professionals with Hearing Loss
DESCRIPTION:Join the national SAA students with hearing loss\, members relations\, and programs committees for a thought provoking and intimate panel discussion featuring audiology students and professionals with hearing loss changing lives in our profession as individuals who are d/Deaf and hard of hearing. This is an opportunity to ask questions\, hear personal stories and perspectives\, and discover new resources. \nMore information and speaker bios will be added soon! \nRegister \nSpeakers\nTina Childress\, AuD \nDr. Tina Childress is an educational audiologist in the mainstream school settings in East Central Illinois at CASE Audiology and a consultant/trainer for the Illinois School for the Deaf. She likes to also call herself a Communication Access Engineer. One of her passions is creating resources for children and adults and all the people that support them. Her nickname is Techy Tina and she is known for her expertise on assistive technology\, apps\, accessibility options online\, cochlear implants\, and accessibility at cultural events such as theater. Dr. Childress is a sought out subject matter expert as a presenter\, advocate and teacher\, and she is also active on several national\, state and local Boards and Committees of advocacy and professional organizations. She likes to say that audiology chose her because she started her career as a hearing audiologist. Her first year in the field\, she experienced a rapidly progressive hearing loss due to Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease\, eventually maxxed out her hearing aids and received her first cochlear implant in 2000 and became a bilateral recipient in 2005. She is comfortable using spoken English or ASL to communicate and identifies as Deaf\, deaf\, Hard of Hearing and late-deafened\, codeswitching\, depending on the situation. She has been an audiologist for almost 25 years and can’t imagine doing anything else! \nYana Estes\, BS \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nKaley Graves\, BA \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \nLillian Herring\, MA \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nAmanda Schnayer\, AuD \nDr. Amanda Schnayer (formerly Demas) received her AuD from Washington University in St. Louis in May of 2022.

She currently works at Arizona Otolaryngology Consultants in Mesa\, Arizona. In clinic\, she works with patients across the lifespan and specializes in diagnostic audiological assessments along with hearing aid care\, cochlear implants\, and Osia.
