ait Curley is on her way to becoming a progressive advocate for the hearing impaired and that's music to their ears. She was born and raised in New York and has always had a passion for geriatrics especially when it comes to those with hearing problems. Her interest in audiology began when she was working in a New York City nightclub called SPiN NY. Part of the clientele for the club were musicians, athletes, and models and Curley was always curious about their ear pieces and hearing equipment. She wanted to know how the

devices were made, who fitted them, and who cleaned them. This curiosity grew and developed into a love for science and helping others to heal. As a struggling artist by day and a club worker and waitress by night, working three different jobs simultaneously, she needed a change. Curley had an epiphany one day and realized she could sell hearing aides to satisfy her need for dependable income and while getting to help others to hear.

After attending school in Buffalo, Curley moved to Syracuse and started working at a firm selling hearing aides. Quickly she became a star sales person, breaking records in sales despite her experience in corporate hearing aide sales. She worked long nights and weekends, but quickly became burnt out. The path she was heading down was becoming too corporate. Wanting to get back to something more wholesome she felt there could be a way

to combine audiology with her other passion, cannabis. Then one day Curley quit her job and

then moved out to Colorado, a place she's never been.
