I have a profound trust in one's ability to birth naturally.
I have extensive experience in identifying and resolving deviations from normal.
I have attended over two thousand births at home and in birth centers.
I bring grace, allowing, and tenacity.
A connected, calming presence.
A confident leader when needed.
I strive to create an environment in which you feel held and nourished.
I am experienced and skilled in herbalism, suturing, twins and breech birth.
I completed my clinical training and didactic midwifery education through formal programming and continuing residency at Maternidad La Luz.
I am vice president of the Minnesota Council of Certified Professional Midwives.
I grew up unschooling in rural Minnesota. I now live in Ely, Minnesota with my partner and our four- and one-year kids. dog, cats and chickens. My practice serves folks in Northeastern Minnesota.

I hold a strong commitment to the elimination of discrimination based on race and ethnicity, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, size or weight, physical ability, mental health experiences, religion and spirituality, etc. I firmly believe all people deserve to not only be accepted for who they are but to have their diversity celebrated.
