Happy ! 🥳 I’m excited to announce that I recently accepted a new job as Admissions & Program Coordinator at National Midwifery Institute, which is where my midwifery journey began. If you’ve ever thought about becoming a midwife, this is your sign that there’s no day like today. The world needs more midwives. If I can do it, you can too. Let’s talk! 😊

The legacies of systemic injustice against American Indian and Alaska Native women are reflected in the maternal health outcomes faced by these women. The approximately 40% of women from these communities who live in rural areas face even greater disparities.

Happy ! 🥳

My challenges with feeding my own kids unexpectedly led me to become a lactation consultant several years ago. The struggle is real! I love working with new families so they feel heard, seen, and supported in achieving their goals. My private practice offers insurance covered home visits throughout the East Bay and specializes in supporting babies with food allergies and lip/tongue ties. Referrals are always appreciated! 🤱🏼🤱🏽🤱🏻🤱🏾🤱🏿❤️

Today I got to attend a prenatal appointment for a family whose birth I’m going to be at as the assistant midwife. At the prenatal, the midwives, student, and family drew affirmations to hang in the birth space. This was my contribution 😊
