Bio

I am a full-spectrum labor and postpartum doula trained through Ancient Song Doula Services and a certified lactation counselor, trained by Lea Rivera, IBCLC. Whether you're loving pregnancy, really struggling with it, or feeling something in between or all of it at once, I'm here to listen and support you! I came to birth work through years of experience supporting families as a social worker. My passion for social and reproductive justice initially led me into a career in sexual health, adoption, grief support, and LGBTQ+ community work. As a doula, I utilize emotional, informational, and physical support as well as active listening, calming patience, and laughter to build trusting relationships. Outside of work, I love to spend time playing in nature, singing and seeing live music, arts and crafting, and hanging with friends and family.
