Birth is a moment of glorious transition and transformation both for the infant entering the world and the parents welcoming this child into their arms. I believe every pregnant person deserves a birth experience that is positive, empowering, and aligned with their hopes and values. I strive to ensure that the families I work with are educated in their options, aware of their rights, and know how to advocate for themselves.

My goal is to provide my pregnant clients with whatever tools and support they need to give birth confidently and joyfully.

There is a part of 'Wonder Woman' inside me and inside every[one]. Kind of that secret self that [we] share. We are all caretakers, giving birth, caring for our children and companions and loved ones.
