From the Provider
“I grew up being inspired by science and medicine, which led me to pursue a career in women’s health. Along my journey, I volunteered as a doula and discovered midwifery and its core purpose of providing direct holistic care to women. As a midwife, I have the privilege of serving women, as well as my community. My hope is to provide a personal experience for my patients, balanced with social, emotional and educational support.”
