My fascination with home birth ignited in 2004. After two hospital births, I sought something deeper for my next two children. We found an extraordinary midwife who guided us through the breathtaking serenity of water birth at home. That experience left an indelible mark on my soul; I realized then, with unwavering certainty, that serving families in this sacred space was my calling.

Since that transformative year, I have dedicated myself to the study and practice of midwifery. I began practicing independently as a Traditional Midwife (DEM) in 2013, later earning my Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) certification through NARM in 2015.

In 2019, I was honored to be among the first groups of midwives to receive state licensing when it became available in Michigan on August 1st. This milestone was the culmination of years of advocacy and dedication, allowing me to provide a seamless bridge between the ancient traditions of midwifery and the highest modern safety standards in our state.

I am passionately dedicated to offering holistic care through every magical moment of your journey. I believe in the gentle art of “watchful guarding”—honoring the natural, awe-inspiring process of childbirth while providing sensitive support and heartfelt encouragement. I intervene only when necessary, ensuring that safety and the preservation of the "magic" of birth always go hand-in-hand.

To me, birth is a sacred rite of passage—a transformative experience that ignites personal growth and deepens the bonds of family. I have unwavering confidence in a woman’s incredible ability to grow and birth her baby. I honor your profound inner wisdom and your desire to labor and birth in your own unique, empowering way.

At home, you and your family can truly immerse yourselves in the ancient traditions of genuine midwifery care—a practice that has proven its invaluable worth across history and around the world.
