About Me
I find the best way to connect with people is through relating well to them. So here's a few things about me that I hope you can relate to.
I grew up in a small town outside of Rochester in a family of six. I got married to my best friend in June of 2022 and together we bought and remodeled our first home, which was entirely unpredictable, as things often are, but is now our very favorite place to be. I know absolutely nothing about cars, but can sing every word to Bust A Move by Young MC. I am very much a homebody and find it outrageous not to be with my family as often as possible. I would almost always rather be reading a book and am usually the last one to add to a conversation, I prefer listening to others over adding my own input any day of the week. I am an undercover country music lover (I can thank my husband for that) and if the movie has Matt Damon or Julia Roberts in it, I've probably seen it. More importantly, I have a real passion for mothers and families and hope to reflect that in my work.
I can't wait to connect with you and get to know all the beautiful crazy that makes you and your family who you are.

I offer my unwavering support to you and your partner before, during, and after your birth. The details of my unique role in your birth experience will be discussed in our prenatal meetings.

I offer one postpartum visit to check in on you and your newborn, to discuss your birth experience and offer any additional support you may need.
