When her two-year-old daughter was diagnosed with hearing loss, Janice Lintz refused to believe that her daughter would have anything less than a "normal" life. So Janice formed Hearing Access and Innovations, the only company dedicated to helping the world's businesses improve their accessibility for people with hearing loss. As CEO, she has spearheaded access initiatives by partnering with companies like Build-a-Bear, Delta, and the New York City Taxis, leading to changes in hearing access that has positively impacted millions. She intends to take her projects globally.
