Avery was born and raised in the Austin area. This is something she is very proud of, and will gladly talk to you about “how big Austin is now,” and what her favorite places and restaurants are. She received her Bachelor of Science in Health Information Management from Texas State University.
During her last semester of her undergraduate degree, Avery interned at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in Provo, Utah where she was then offered a supervisory position at Intermountain Healthcare’s Primary Children’s Medical Center, in Salt Lake City, Utah. A year later, Avery moved into a manager role at a critical access hospital within the same health system.
After moving back to Austin in 2014, Avery moved into the healthcare technology world and began working on a number of technology products that serviced a wide range of health systems in the United States. She has been in health IT ever since, serving in many different capacities, most recently as a consultant.
Avery loves being married to Scott, and values being small business owners in the community they grew up in. Avery enjoys biking, running, yoga, and running after their two children, Lydia and Nolan.
