She’s an outdoor enthusiast ... and Armstrong’s newest Hearing Professional! We’re delighted to announce that Brietana Finch has now officially assumed management of the Nexgen Hearing clinic from her predecessor, Brenda Bone who has recently retired to spend more time with her family. Brietana was born and raised in Vernon, BC and began her experience in the hearing health profession as a Customer Care Representative. With a new zeal to advance her career, Brie then attended Grant MacEwan University and soon graduated from the Hearing Aid Practitioner (HIP) program. Recently married, Brietana loves to keep active with soccer, volleyball and other outdoor activities. When she isn’t out fishing or hiking you most likely find her baking. As she puts it; “I love my new ‘career in caring’! Helping my clients hear well again is just the cherry on the top!” ARMSTRONG 778.442.2000 7 - 3495 Pleasant Valley Road
