I am a Licensed Midwife (LM), Certified Professional Midwife (CPM), and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Midwifery has always been a part of my life—I was born at home, and my mother was a Traditional Midwife. Though I pursued midwifery as an adult, the calling felt deeply familiar.

My journey intertwined with missions, which lead my family to serve for six years in the Philippines, where I volunteered at a charity birth center while training at an international midwifery school. I later gained invaluable experience working with a home birth midwife in Washington before returning overseas. I love serving women from diverse backgrounds, and I am honored to have used my skills to support families in all birth settings.

I have been married for 15 years, and we have five wonderful children. My personal birth experiences—a natural hospital birth, twins by cesarean, a VBAC hospital birth with an epidural, and a home birth VBAC—have given me a unique ability to relate to many different birth experiences and the families I serve.

With over 300 babies caught and hundreds more assisted, I have witnessed both the beauty and challenges of birth. Whether in clinics, homes, or birth centers.

I consider it a privilege to stand beside women and both guide and protect their strength and dignity in one of life’s most transformative moments. I am grateful for this calling and the strong, courageous mothers I have the honor to support.
