Liz

Office Manager

I began optical care office as a file clerk in 1988 while still attending Bristol Eastern High School. This is where I found my interest in eye care. I earned my Certified Paraoptometric Assistant certification through the American Optometric Association. I attend yearly meetings and events to maintain this certification. I joined Della Porta Eyecare from inception as both an eyecare professional and office manager. My time away from the office is spent enjoying quality time with friends and family on many life adventures.
