Dr. Lanter’s passion for audiology was shaped early in life growing up just outside Winston-Salem, North Carolina. After helping her grandfather run a roadside vegetable stand at age 12, she developed a love for building relationships and working with older adults. When her grandmother received her first pair of hearing aids, the experience left a lasting impression—igniting a lifelong commitment to helping others reconnect with the world around them through better hearing.

She enjoys spending time with her children including many hours at lacrosse fields and marching band events. In addition, she enjoys all things DIY, watching live music and travel.

She holds a Doctor of Audiology degree from A.T. Still University, a MA in Audiology from the University of Iowa, and a BA in Communication Disorders from North Carolina State University.
