Kris Hewitt
Registered Hearing Instrument Practitioner

I have a multifaceted background spanning wholesale, training, and most notably, private practice ownership. Before selling my practice and joining Amy to co-found Pacific Audiology Group, I worked for Demant (Oticon) as a Business Development Manager and, before this, in a training role with Siemens Hearing. After working in wholesale for a number of years, I purchased and transformed a private practice — overseeing a full renovation, re-brand, and a transition to a state-of-the-art digital and paperless database. I enjoy teaching and mentoring others, and I have a keen sense for the business aspects of hearing healthcare.

Amy Trusler, AuD
Doctor of Audiology

My roots lie in Squamish, British Columbia, Canada, where I previously owned and operated my private hearing care practice. A big focus of my practice was working with First Nations communities, where I implemented a rural audiology care program. I also mentored other hearing care professionals and delivering lectures and presentations in the community. After selling my practice in 2019, I was drawn toward continuing education in hearing healthcare, with a focus on online and on-demand e-learning.
