Hi! I am a dedicated provider with over a decade of experience as a maternal child health nurse. Since becoming a certified International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2016, I have passionately devoted my career to supporting breastfeeding families, particularly in underserved communities. I have lived in New Jersey, Colorado, and Pennsylvania, and until the last year have worked in FQHC's and postpartum hospital floors. My work is deeply rooted in a holistic approach to birth and lactation, aligning with my personal philosophy and experiences. As a mother who breastfed my eldest daughter for two years (with a tongue tie!) and continues to nurse my toddler, I bring a wealth of personal and professional insight to my practice. I am excited about the prospect of tandem nursing my middle while pregnant with a third. My commitment to empowering families through compassionate, evidence-based care is matched by my enthusiasm for fostering environments where holistic and informed choices about breastfeeding and infant care are celebrated. A blend of professional expertise and personal experience uniquely positions me to support and inspire families on their breastfeeding journeys.
