I am a mother of two, both born at home. For the past decade, I have worked in maternal support, as a birth doula (attending clients both in-hospital and out), as a Restorative Exercise Specialist for the prenatal and postpartum period, and as a childbirth educator through my online program, Intentional Birth.

Being part of VFAM is aligned with my work’s central mission: to prevent trauma by supporting mother-led care and informed choice. My incredibly skilled midwives gave me the greatest gift: they trusted me. Because of them, in the critical moment that transformed me into a mother, I learned how to trust myself.
