Midwife/Founder
I am a medical board-licensed and certified professional midwife with a deep passion for the midwifery model of care, home birth, and supporting women throughout all stages of life. I am NRP and CPR certified and also completed my Advanced Life Support in Obstetrics certification. My journey began with a bachelor's degree in psychology, but after graduation, I pursued my dream of becoming a midwife. I recently joined a home-birth practice alongside a wonderful midwife and birth assistant, who have been serving the Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties for 20+ years. I also provide birth assistance to other midwives in the area. I live in Ventura with my significant other; when I'm not attending births, I enjoy traveling, reading, baking, spending time at the beach, and continually learning more about women’s wellness. I am a DUTCH test provider, CAYA provider, NEEDED practitioner, and I am currently working on the Thompson Method Breastfeeding for Professionals course as well as my certification in Functional Integrative Nutrition.
