After the home birth of my first daughter in 2010, I felt a strong calling to midwifery. With my five-month-old by my side, I took a doula training and began supporting women in home, birth center and hospital settings. I eventually saved up the resources to attend midwifery school at the National Midwifery Institute. I was fortunate enough to learn from midwives in both home and birth center settings, both rural and in the city. I have never felt so “at home” in my work as I do when I am serving as a Midwife.

My other credentials include a BA in Spanish, Minor in Communications, and a Massage Therapy Certification from the Costa Rica School of Massage Therapy.

When I am not at “work,” I enjoy being in nature with my husband and three kiddos! We love visiting our farm in Mendocino County where I have grown many medicinal herbs over the years and still make tea blends, healing ointments, and tinctures. I love watching my kids do what they are excited about; from art to sports to dancing in the kitchen! Fun fact about me: my daughters were both over nine-pound and my son clocked in at 11 pounds, 5 ounces! My home births gave me a lot of confidence and embodiment of what is possible in birth.
I hope that you have the birth of your dreams! I am here to remind you that you are incredible!
