Along with didactic instruction in ophthalmic optics, eye health management, and clinical optometry, she supported patient care and student clinical education in UMSL eye centers across the St. Louis metropolitan area. In 2024, she joined the University of Colorado Department of Ophthalmology as Assistant Professor, serving patients at the Boulder eye clinic. Her current practice and clinical interests include comprehensive care, pre- and post-operative surgical co-management, glaucoma, and posterior segment clinic support. Additionally, health equity strategy and implementation across eye care service delivery are of particular interest.

In additional to the National Optometric Association, Dr. Wright is an active member of several optometric and community organizations, including the American Academy of Optometry and American Optometric Association.
