I am a certified birth and postpartum doula, and I am dedicated to supporting families through every stage of their journey. I hold a placenta encapsulation certification, and I am currently working towards becoming a certified lactation educator. My expertise extends across various aspects of maternal and infant care.
While Embracing a holistic approach, I have assisted mothers through a variety of birth experiences, including c-sections, medicated, and unmedicated births, as well as pregnancy loss. My passion lies in bridging gaps within our maternal and infant healthcare system while advocating for equal and just care for all. I am deeply committed to providing non-judgmental and individualized support tailored to each family's unique birth and postpartum choices.
As a Black and Indigenous activist with years of experience, my work extends beyond individual care to include legislative efforts for reproductive justice. Outside of my professional life, I find joy in visiting farmers' markets, gardening, creating my own tea blends and tinctures, and meeting new clients. My journey to becoming a doula was inspired by my personal experiences with the healthcare system and a profound passion for helping others.
I always look forward to offering compassionate, respectful, and expert support to families, ensuring a positive and empowering experience for all.

I chose birth work because of my personal experiences with inequality in the medical field, especially during my own fertility journey and personal loss. These experiences opened my eyes to the gaps in care and the lack of support that many birthing individuals face, especially those from marginalized communities. I believe that doulas are the change we need to see in the birth world, offering compassionate, informed care that empowers families. Being a doula allows me to blend my lifelong passion for advocacy with my desire to make a difference, ensuring that others have the support they deserve.
