Paula joined Lotus Vision in 2010 and has grown with the company for most of its lifespan. Starting as a Receptionist, she subsequently was promoted to Optician before becoming the Practice Manager in 2014.

She brings a unique perspective of being a first-generation American, having grown up learning entrepreneurship from her Romanian father who ran his own business. Paula also leads our dry eye program alongside Dr. Nemi performing Radio Frequency therapy for dry eye disease, blepharitis, and chalazions.
In her free time, Paula enjoys spending time with her husband Benjamin and their three daughters. She is passionate about baking and loves making sweet treats for her friends and family.
