Born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Paula recently moved to Florida with her husband and their two children to begin an exciting new chapter in their lives. They were drawn to Florida in search of new experiences, opportunities, and a different environment in which to raise their family.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, and her career has taken her through a diverse range of management and operational roles. She began her professional journey in the textile industry before transitioning into medical and veterinary clinic operations. Each experience has shaped her understanding of what it takes to build and maintain a successful organization, and most importantly, it has reinforced her belief that people are at the heart of every successful business.

Paula’s connection to patients and families is also personal. As a parent of neurodiverse children, she understands firsthand how difficult and emotional it can be to navigate challenging medical experiences with your children. Having walked that path with her own family, she can relate to the uncertainty, worry, and many emotions that parents may face. That experience has given her a deep appreciation for the importance of compassion, empathy, and creating an environment where families feel understood and supported.

She is excited to bring her experience, perspective, and commitment to teamwork to this next chapter in Florida, while continuing to support a practice with a strong team, a positive work culture, and meaningful experiences for the families we serve at ListenHEAR.
