New Accessions

Welcome to 1Lt Jennifer J. Jones from Bellevue, Nebraska. She writes: “I completed my undergraduate and graduate degree in audiology at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Most of my family lives in Nebraska in the Omaha metro area. Some of my hobbies include reading, watching movies, running, and just hanging out with friends. I joined the Air Force because of the opportunity to receive a broad CFY experience, travel, and to be given many opportunities to learn new things. So far I have enjoyed working with the staff audiologists at Wilford Hall and look forward to meeting other Air Force audiologists in the upcoming months.”

Welcome to 1Lt Robert Noble; originally from Midland, TX. He writes: “I attended The University of Texas for my bachelor’s degree and the University of North Texas for my Master’s. I worked as a staff audiologist in a private practice from 2001–2003 and am now the Chief of Audiology at Scott AFB, IL. I’ve been married for over two years, have two dogs and enjoy live music, traveling, and reading in my spare time.

Welcome to 1Lt Melissa Salzer who is also working on her CFY at Wilford Hall, Lackland AFB, TX.
