About Lifeline Audiology & Hearing Solutions

Lorrie A. Bielen, M.A., CCC-A

Audiologist

Originally from Westfield, New Jersey, I have called Fernandina Beach, Florida, my home for the past 17 years. My journey in healthcare began with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, which I followed with a Master’s degree in Audiology from the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at Montclair State University.

As a proud member of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), I am deeply committed to my field. One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been participating in medical mission trips, where I’ve had the privilege of bringing the gift of better hearing to people in need around the world.

With over 32 years of experience, I’ve learned that the best outcomes come from an approach that is:

• Educational: Empowering you with knowledge about your hearing health.
• Personalized: Tailoring solutions to your specific lifestyle.
• Patient-Centered: Keeping your unique needs at the heart of everything I do.

When I’m not helping patients, I’m likely looking for a breeze—I hold a pilot’s license and fly hot air balloons! I also find a lot of joy in spending time with my family and animals, relaxing at the beach, and enjoying music, dancing, and movies.

Greg Cajuste, B.S, BC-HIS

Board Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist

Administrative Director

Hi, I’m Greg! As your Hearing Instrument Specialist and Office Manager, I bring a unique blend of healthcare experience and technical “know-how” to the team. My background in Biology and IT support allows me to navigate the high-tech world of hearing health with ease. When I’m not in the office, you’ll likely find me building gaming PCs, traveling, or searching for the best new food spots with my family. I love what I do because it allows me to use my tech skills to truly improve people’s lives.

Jasmine Simmons, Au.D., CCC-A

Doctor of Audiology

Hi! I’m Dr. Jasmine Simmons. My passion is helping people reconnect with the world through better hearing. After graduating from the University of Akron and receiving my Doctorate from Central Michigan University, I’ve focused my career on clinical excellence and patient advocacy. In fact, that advocacy led me to write my book, Extraordinary Jordyn and her Bionic Ears! To unwind, you’ll usually find me with a good book in hand, traveling to new places, or enjoying the sun at the beach.

Diana Ortiz, Au.D.

Doctor of Audiology

Audiology Manager

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Speech and Hearing Science from the University of Utah in 2021 and recently completed my Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) at Utah State University. As a proud member of the American Academy of Audiology, I focus my clinical work on cochlear implants and vestibular disorders, always prioritizing evidence-based research to ensure the best possible outcomes for my patients.

I am fluent in Spanish and deeply committed to providing inclusive, person-centered care to every community I serve. I believe that effective communication is a right, and I strive to make every patient feel heard and supported.

When I’m not working with patients, I’m usually heading outdoors to recharge with my family. You can often find us hiking local trails, kayaking on the water, or snowboarding during the winter months.

Elizabeth Denker

Clinical Coordinator

I am blessed beyond measure to be a military wife, mama of 2 girls, and adventurer in life. I enjoy being resourceful and being an asset to the community. My background is vast from retail management, to crane operating, to medical practice management, and entrepreneurship. You might say that being multi-faceted is my hobby. I am intentionally looking forward to what the Lord has in store for the future.

My name is Cindy Lewis. I was born and raised in Pensacola, FL. I moved to Jacksonville, FL in October 2022. I am the proud mother of a nine year old energetic boy who is excelling academically.

My role at Lifeline Audiology as patient care coordinator is to welcome and assist patients and the clinicians with the utmost care and quality. I am dedicated to helping others and I look forward to making a difference in our office and the Jacksonville, Yulee, and Fernandina community.

Elijah Aspelly

Patient Care Coordinator

My name is Elijah Aspelly. I enjoy listening to music, watching anime, reading manga, and trying new foods as a couple of hobbies of mine. I’m pursuing a degree in Computer Science and Nursing. Being able to use my interest in technology and health to help a community of people who need it really does bring me joy to be able to help Dr. Judenie and the Lifeline Audiology team to provide audiological services to others that need it.
