I am many things; a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, and a midwife. I am also a lover of nature. When I am not seeing clients or at a birth you can find me camping in the woods, swimming in a lake, or simply sitting outside with my wife watching our son play. My other true love is midwifery. I was called to this work by a passion for meeting people where they are, sitting with them in that, and supporting them in their desires, even in one of life's most beautiful but challenging moments. I have attended over 100 births and look forward to having to opportunity to attend many more.

I have given birth three times and though each birth experience was vastly different, they have something in common – I will never forget them. I would love for every woman to have a special and meaningful childbirth experience. My experiences many years ago first led me to lactation peer counseling and postpartum support. My passion to serve and empower women led to becoming a birth doula, and eventually a midwife. I am certified through the North American Registry of Midwives as a Certified Professional Midwife and hold a Midwifery Bridge Certificate. I am also licensed as a midwife in the state of South Carolina. I believe birth is a natural, hormonally driven process from the onset of labor through birth of the baby and placenta, as well as the establishment of breastfeeding and the development of mother-baby attachment. To support the natural birth process, women need informational, emotional, and physical support, as well as minimal external interference.
