I am a Past President and Vice President of the American Society of Ocularists. I served on the ASO Board of Directors. Being an ocularist is one of the great joys of my life! It is our goal at M and G to create the finest prothesis possible for each patient.

I have been practicing as an ocularist at Mager & Gougelman of St. Louis since 2004. I am a Diplomate member of the American Society of Ocularists and Board-Certified by the National Examining Board of Ocularists.  My undergraduate degree is in Business Management with a minor in Fine Art.

Creating an artificial eye is creating a piece of art. Each one is hand-crafted and hand-painted. I take much pride in my work and I very much enjoy helping our clients of all ages look as good as possible with their prosthesis. It is so incredibly rewarding to me!
