Education and Field Involvement

Dr. Fredrickson received her B.S. from the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point in 1996, her M.S. from the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point in 1998, and her Ph.D. from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2010.  She holds her Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and is a member of the American Academy of Audiology. She currently serves on the Gold Standards Committee of the American Academy of Audiology, which assesses clinical education in audiology and addresses concerns and implements changes to increase the effectiveness of educating future audiologists. She also works closely with faculty and graduate students at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Research/Interests

Dr. Fredrickson’s research interests primarily lie in infant speech perception. She has worked with a team of fellow UCH/CU audiologists and faculty to develop a method of assessing speech perception in infants. This tool is now regularly used in the Marion Downs Hearing Center’s clinics with infants who have hearing loss.  She is also interested in auditory processing and its assessment and remediation.
