Meet the Team
Katia Peeters
Obtained her degree as a Speech Therapist and Audiologist in Europe where she worked for many years in the hearing industry and specifically trained as an audiologist and worked with ENT in the fitting of cochlear implants.
Siemens Hearing Instruments invited her to come and live in Australia to train audiologists in the technology and fitting of hearing aids.
After several years of intensive travelling and presenting seminars in Australia, she decided to settle in Brisbane and re-focus again on the clinical side of her work. Falls of Sound in Indooroopilly had been operating very successfully, and Katia and her family moved to the Sunshine Coast where she opened Falls of Sound Maroochydore.
Katia’s priority in the business is to make sure that every client receives an outstanding experience in their “journey to better hearing”. Therefore she is constantly training herself in the latest technology of all brands. She appreciates the client’s feedback, so a further comparison between products can be analysed.

Trestan

Trestan completed his Master’s degree in Audiology at UQ and worked full time out west in Kingaroy and down south in Tweed Heads before making his way back to Brisbane to join the Falls of Sound team at Indooroopilly.
Trestan is an accomplished classical musician and French Horn player; he has performed with many high-level ensembles, including the Queensland Symphony Orchestra and the Australian Youth Orchestra. As a musician, Trestan fully appreciates just how important our hearing is in our everyday lives and is passionate about helping people hear better. He approaches every problem with a positive, can-do attitude and cannot wait to help you achieve your hearing goals!
Elodie
A true “citizen of the world”, Elodie returned to Brisbane after several years in England and settled into her role as Business Unit Manager. While working primarily out of the Indooroopilly clinic, you may also find her in Maroochydore helping with the clinic and its business development.
Fluent in French, Italian and Spanish – with more on the way – Elodie is a self-declared geek, who loves to have a chat and get to know the clinic regulars. If you want to test out your new hearing aids, she’ll happily talk your ear off about Sci-Fi, mythology or linguistics!

Riley

Riley worked within the NDIS sector as a community support worker for five years before moving to Falls of Sound. He completed his Bachelor of Health Science and Master of Clinical Audiology in Melbourne, electing to move up the Sunshine Coast to ‘ride some waves’ pertaining to surfing and sound waves (Audiology). Quite a move from Central Victoria.
Riley has also worked within corporate finance for several years, answering calls and developing customer service skills and a love for long black coffee. He completed his Master’s thesis on Professional barriers to Cochlear Implant Candidacy Evaluation.
He is passionate about his vinyl music and sport, playing tennis, football and trail running most weekends.
Riley seeks to provide an educational approach during appointments, aiming to help with all aspects of hearing health. Using the most fundamental element of communication, ‘listening’.
