About me
When my mother was pregnant with my little brother, I was three years old. She bought a book which had pictures of growing pregnant bellies and photos of growing fetuses in utero. I remember staring at these photos and being amazed that my little brother was growing just like that! This became my favorite book as a child and it still sits on my bookshelf today, albeit a more tattered version. Thus began my life's work to care for women and their families. Originally from the Bay Area in California, I moved to Georgia in 2015. Prior to training to become a midwife, I both worked and volunteered as a doula in San Francisco and Davis, Calif. exploring how to support birthing people throughout their pregnancies, labor, birth and postpartum periods. This provided a unique foundation for my midwifery training.
About my practice
I am passionate about maintaining my patient's autonomy throughout every step of our journey together. Prenatal care, birth, postpartum care, contraception care and gynecologic care should be respectful, humane and culturally sensitive. I work hard to learn from our members to be able to provide the most personalized care because this is what everyone deserves.
How I thrive
I love my family and we enjoy spending time at home working in the yard or hiking locally. Gardening in Georgia is still challenging for me compared to the climate in California, but I am learning. Our dog, Angus, is always close by to provide snuggles or entertainment.
