Central Michigan University
Saint Johns, Michigan
Hello! My name is Alyssa Vandegriff and I was born in raised in Saint Johns, Michigan. I attended Central Michigan University, where I graduated with a Bachelor of Communication Sciences and Disorders. I am a current 4th year at CMU completing my externship at the Oscar G. Johnson VA. My primary research interest is noise-induced hearing loss prevention. Growing up in a small town where hunting is a huge hobby, I have firsthand experience with how much gunfire can affect an individual's hearing and what can happen to it over time. Through my time and experience in this program, I have been able to better advocate for myself, friends, and family about the safety measures they should take with preserving their hearing.
