Athena O’Connor
Audiology Assistant
athena@hearherefl.comI grew up in Saint Petersburg, Florida but moved to Louisville, KY when I was 10. It wasn’t love at first sight but it quickly became home when I started school and met the friends I still have today. When I was about 14, I began participating in service work at my mother’s non- profit school and office, to help out. I found a love for helping the less fortunate as much as I could. As I got older, I worked at her practice and learned many things about patience and patient care. While in KY I earned a degree in Criminal Justice from the University of Louisville.
My parents moved back to Florida for family as soon as I was out of college, but I stayed for friends and work. I managed a bar for a few years until late 2017 when I moved back to Florida to be with my parents and little brothers. I would help fill in at Hear Here Audiology for Nicky when she was out of the office, but always wanted to do more. In 2019, I joined the Hear Here team officially and I love what I do and enjoy meeting and helping new people every day.
Taylor Teasdale
Patient Care Coordinator
I was born and raised in St. Petersburg, FL and am glad to call this city home. I went to Osceola and Dixie High School and played competitive soccer for 14 years. I have spent time working in various small local businesses in the St. Pete and Clearwater areas and have enjoyed supporting all of them.
I joined the Hear Here Audiology family in October 2022. Although I did not have much experience in Audiology, I have had lots of experience in customer service and enjoy working with people. I quickly gained knowledge of hearing aids and appreciate the positive impact they have on someone’s quality of life. It is fulfilling to be part of a practice that provides excellent care to the community.
In my free time, I am a huge music enthusiast and try to attend at least one concert a month! Those close to me will tell you that I am the biggest Taylor Swift fan. I also enjoy reading and solving mysteries.
