The Academy was saddened to learn of the passing of Haley Owen, AuD, a dedicated audiologist, Academy member, and advocate for better hearing-health-care throughout the United States. During her 20-year career in the hearing care industry, Dr. Owen appeared on various media outlets, raising awareness about the impacts of hearing loss and the importance of proper hearing-health. She also served as the vice president of legislative issues for the Texas Academy of Audiology.
Our condolences are with Dr. Owen’s family. Please visit the memorial website for donations and more information.
