Keith Darrow

Suzana Matalqah is a clinical audiologist working as a manager in an audiology and speech pathology clinic in Jordan. She graduated from Jordan University of Science and Technology in 2021 with a bachelor's degree in Audiology and Speech Pathology. She went on to get a master's degree in audiology from the University of Manchester, where she learned and observed the various ways audiologists handle their patients in the UK and compared and contrasted both countries. Her goal is to make an impact in the field (at least in her country) and to grow and learn as much as possible.
