My journey into midwifery started back in college when one of my professors, who was also a midwife, sparked my interest. I remember sitting in her office for hours, asking her to tell me everything about midwifery. From that moment, I was hooked. Over the next few years, I balanced my degree with midwifery courses. After earning my bachelor’s degree, I began a two-year apprenticeship at a busy birth center, where I had the privilege of learning from a diverse group of approximately 10 midwives and attended 98 births during that time. This experience provided invaluable insight and hands-on training. I loved the experience of learning from so many diverse perspectives. After getting licensed in Oregon, I practiced independently for several years. Then, after the birth of my second baby, I took a break from midwifery. Fast forward through five babies (and five home births!), I have relocated to Utah, where I am once again licensed and eager to serve families. Along the way, I’ve continued to assist at various births, maintaining and expanding my skillset. I am excited to be back doing what I love, supporting and empowering women through their birth experiences. ​ In my free time, I spend time with my family, read, garden, cook new recipes, hike, swim in lakes, and try to have some fun through this life.
