Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, spending time with my family and friends, reading, cross word puzzles, and listening to good music.
I bring diverse experience to my work, providing direct client education and support while contributing to the development of programs that promote healthy birth outcomes. I provide strategic consulting and mentorship to doulas seeking Medicaid reimbursement and to birth workers who want to build sustainable, well-structured practices. I also support birth professionals who desire to build Kingdom-focused businesses—helping them integrate their faith into their operations and decision-making while maintaining strong systems and sustainability.
This work builds on a long history of professional experience. Previously, I served as the Online Learning Coordinator at the National College of Midwifery, overseeing courses on Perinatal Education and Human Lactation, as well as Communication and Counseling. I also served with the Childbirth Education Association of Metropolitan NY (CEA/MNY), completing two full terms as president and serving as membership coordinator.
Over the past two decades, my collaborations have included working with community-based organizations, co-creating a framework for a community-based doula program, co-founding a doula group, expanding an existing volunteer doula program, and co-designing a federally funded women’s health initiative. Drawing on my life experiences and professional wisdom, I have guided aspiring birth workers as they establish themselves in the field and create positive change for families and communities.
Through these experiences, I continue to bring both perspective and practical guidance to the birth work field, supporting professionals and families in meaningful, faith-informed ways.
Alongside my professional background, I am a devoted follower of Christ and my faith shapes the way I serve families (Philippians 2:3). For women who desire it, I offer spiritual mentoring during pregnancy - helping them prepare for birth with confidence, courage and peace rooted and grounded in Christ's love. This work is informed by the framework in my book, Invite God Into Your Birth Room: The Art of Spiritual Strategy for the Childbearing Year, and is always offered with discernment and respect for each woman's personal journey.
My daughter's birth was the beginning of my work supporting women and families. It was a deeply meaningful experience that strengthened my confidence in ways I had not anticipated. Realizing I could give birth without routine medical interventions and trusting my body shifted how I saw myself and what I believed was possible. That experience led me to pursue training as a childbirth educator and expand into other areas of perinatal support, including perinatal fitness, labor support, breastfeeding coaching and education. Over time, I became involved in advocacy efforts focused on increasing access to community-based midwifery care, working toward a future where families who desire midwifery support are able to choose it.
