About Me

I have been an environmental justice organizer for the past ten years, tending to the land and the people that climate change disproportionately impacts the most. After undergoing my own reproductive health issues, struggling to navigate the medical system on my own, and finding my healing path, I was inspired to shift my advocacy and care to one-on-one support.

​

As a doula, I am honored to be by your side. While many current birthing practices focus primarily on the outcome (a healthy birthing person and baby), there are many other important parts of the experience that are overlooked. I help fill in the gaps by offering support in all aspects of the birth process—physical, mental, emotional, logistical, and informational. I adapt to your unique needs and desires, helping you feel more heard, seen, safe, autonomous, comfortable, and cared for. 

 

I believe that birth work is justice work. My approach and training is trauma-informed, anti-racist, queer and trans affirming, and inclusive to all the different ways that family & parenthood looks and feels. I have supported a wide range of experiences, including hospital births (with midwives, family practice doctors, and OB/GYNs), unmedicated hospital births, high-risk pregnancies, single parents, queer and trans families, breech babies, NICU stays, premature births, navigating medical or birth trauma, planned and unplanned cesareans, inductions, and IVF pregnancies.
​​

Birth is unpredictable, and it's a time when having support can make all the difference. My role is to help you release control, tether you to the ground, and find resilience no matter the outcome. I offer non-judgmental care, trusting that you know what’s best for your body, spirit, and baby. ​

​

Outside of birthwork, you can find me foraging and learning from plants and mycelium, hanging out with Lake Monona, making music, drinking tea, or in a handstand.

I accept Quartz insurance (except Badgercare) via a contractor, Pacify, and I also accept Carrot Fertility funds. I am a member of the Madison Doula Collective and Wisconsin Abortion Support Network.
