I trust in the ability of women to choose how, where and with whom to give birth and believe women possess instinctual knowledge about how to birth their own baby.
As your Midwife, I approach your pregnancy and birth using evidence based resources while being rooted in the art of traditional midwifery.


My Own Family

My journey to becoming a midwife began in 2000. While living in Berkeley, Ca, I was studying at a local coffee shop one evening. As I got up to leave, someone had left a book called Midwives. I remember looking at this book and knowing it was important for me to read it. I got married a few months later and my husband, Jeff and I, took off for Yellowstone National Park to work before settling into our teaching careers. It was there that I devoured the book and everything I could find on the subject of midwifery. I had my first baby at home the following year. The moment I reached down and lifted my daughter into my arms, I felt such an inspiration to work with women and families around birth. As I began on my path to help empower women through this rite of passage I knew in my heart this was my calling.
