Marla Pennell, AuD
AUDIOLOGIST
Hometown: Midland, TX
About Me:
Life is an adventure that I embrace fully – whether I’m practicing yoga at sunrise, hiking scenic trails, or casting a line at my favorite fishing spot. These outdoor pursuits keep me grounded and energized for my true passion: serving our community through audiology.
I am active with the American Academy of Audiology, Texas Academy of Audiology, American Speech and Hearing Association, and have 32 years of experience in audiology!
Outside of work:
You’ll find me surrounded by my wonderful family, including my spouse of 32 years who’s been through every journey. Together, we’ve raised three amazing children and created quite the lovable menagerie – four playful dogs and three charming chickens who keep our backyard lively! Our home is never short on love, laughter, or fresh eggs.
Arianna Garcia, AuD
Audiologist
Hometown: Eagle Pass, Tx
I always strive to bring warmth and expertise to my role as an audiologist, combining my passion for helping others and specialized knowledge in hearing health. As a bilingual provider, I help to break down language and communication barriers while serving my Spanish-speaking patients. My work with the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM) Hear Clinics at Waterloo Audiology allows me to preserve and protect the hearing health of Austin’s vibrant music community. What truly drives my work is witnessing patients reconnect with their world through better hearing.
Drawing from my education at the University of Texas, where I completed both my undergraduate degree and Doctor of Audiology, I now am privileged to helps shape the next generation of audiologists as a Clinical Supervisor at the UT Speech and Hearing Clinic.
Outside of work:
When I am not transforming lives through hearing health services, you might find me channeling my energy in the boxing ring, enjoying Austin’s legendary live music scene, or cherishing time with my family.
Anabel Mendoza
Patient Care Coordinator
Hometown: Elgin, TX
Professionally, I have dedicated the past 7 years to working as a Patient Care Coordinator (PCC), where I derive great satisfaction from assisting individuals in achieving optimal hearing through routine maintenance of their hearing devices. This role has taught me the profound impact that hearing can have on one’s quality of life.
Outside of work:
I am an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys leisurely walks, hiking, and staying active. My passion for soccer, which began during my high school playing days, continues to this day, with my two daughters now carrying on the family tradition.
I have been a longstanding resident of Elgin, Texas, with over 30 years of ties to the community. After attending middle school and high school locally, I established strong roots in the area, with my family and childhood friends still residing here.
