Foundation of Care: In whatever capacity I serve families, I lean into my innate instincts and intuition with a strong desire to nurture and help people, especially during vulnerable or important moments. I carry an empathetic nature into every space with the goal to meet your needs in a meaningful way. With over 12 years of experience, I offer tailored support to suit your individual circumstances, preferences, and goals. I look forward to connecting with you!
About me: My biggest supporter is my husband, who has been by my side since we were 14, and together we have three incredible kiddos. When we get a chance, we love to play board games, card games, complete escape rooms, swim, run, ski, rock climb, get together with family members, or snuggle up with popcorn or ice cream (or both) to watch an exciting movie or hilarious tv series. I’m part of a local roller derby team, try to complete regular mud runs or complete other challenges to remind myself that I can do hard things and be a part of something bigger, and that mindset carries into my services as I support YOU. I love serving all types of births and families, including and especially marginalized communities such as BIPOC folks, LGBTQIA2S+ families, young individuals, survivors of trauma, and more. In honor of accessibility, I accept payment plans and Medicaid, and I offer discounts and/or sliding scales for services. Inquire for details.
My Business Philosophy:
I believe that a person should be empowered with knowledge and courage to make informed choices.
I believe in affirming and equity-based care.
I believe in capturing once-in-a-lifetime moments and milestones through photos.
I believe in the difference that having a supportive birth team can make.
Most importantly, I believe in you!
