Bio: I have been happily married to a wonderful and
supportive man for five years.  We have two beautiful
young daughters who have brought tremendous joy
and love to our lives.  I have five years' experience in
the healthcare arena and work extremely well with
physicians and nurses.  These skills come in very
handy as I advocate for my clients!

Philosophy: I believe pregnancy and birth are the greatest miracles of life and it would be my
honor to support a woman and her partner, emotionally and physically during labor.  My goal is
to assist women and their families in having the birth experience they desire.  I believe each
woman's labor is unique (whether it's your first or your fifth!) and deserves to be treated that
way.  As a doula, my role is not to convince, sway, or judge, but to assist in educating moms
and their partners so they can make a decision that is right for them.  I love having the
opportunity to get to know my clients before labor, to offer my complete support during labor, and
to have a chance to enhance their experience after the birth of the baby.  A baby's birthing story
is one that the parent/s will tell for years to come.  I hope I can help make it a wonderful one!
