Elizabeth Zweigart-Hoover, AuD, is a member of the SAA Advisory Committee.
"Graduating is a big change. All of my friends were spread across the country, and I was no longer spending the majority of my time studying. Furthermore, the onset of the Coronavirus pandemic limited the ways that I was able to comfortably socialize with people. I was struggling to find a meaningful way to spend my time when I saw the call for volunteers on the Academy's social media. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the Student Academy of Audiology Advisory Committee.
I have gotten to meet some wonderful audiologists from across the country, and I've been able to work on some projects that are very personally meaningful to me to make a difference. My favorite part about volunteering, though, is being able to work with the students—it's truly uplifting to see how bright the future of audiology is."
