CERTIFICATIONS & TRAINING

My skill set is unique and vigorous. I do not sell you a dream or an experience. I incorporate my OBGYN medical background and Midwifery expertise into doula support to ensure families understand the holistic and medical options related to fertility, birth and beyond. My goal is to ensure birthing people are informed, educated, and feel confident to advocate for themselves throughout pre-conception, prenatal care, labor/birth, and postpartum period.
