Lauren Turner (Noyes) was born and raised in Lloydminster. She was introduced to the hearing healthcare industry by her brother-in-law, Terry Sokalofsky, and in 2012 she decided to make it her professional career.

In 2012 she began working on her Hearing Aid Practitioner Diploma from Grant MacEwan University, while at the same time working at the Lloydminster Hearing Centre. Lauren graduated from Grant MacEwan University’s Hearing Aid Practitioner Diploma program in 2014 with Distinction.
