I’m a certified Birth/Lactation/Postpartum Doula based in Atlanta, Georgia. I've always envisioned myself helping moms during this special time in their lives while going through their birthing experiences. ​ Becoming a Doula was perfect for me because of my nurturing personality and desire to follow a more natural/holistic approach to childbirth. The desire came to my heart when I realized I could be those things for mom and more if needed. ​ My support and responsibilities are to mom and baby, while also guiding and supporting the families in a positive way when bringing wonderful gifts into the world.

Yes, I was actually named after Storm from X Men, so standing up for what is right is in my DNA. My love for women’s health started at just 7 years old when I experienced my older sister give birth. Now at 23, I’m experiencing the journey firsthand as a first time mom. Conceiving naturally while navigating PCOS has been an absolute miracle, and it completely solidified my awe and respect for what our bodies can do. That personal experience shapes exactly how I show up as a birthworker. My approach centers on a holistic, body led style, leaning heavily into somatic movement and herbal wisdom (combined with evidence-based practices), to help you intuitively flow through labor. Just like my namesake, political advocacy is a massive part of who I am. When I'm not supporting births, I’m fighting for women and PCOS awareness, leading educational discussions, and speaking out against political injustice. I’m a member of the Atlanta Peach Book Club where we strengthen community through education! My downtime is filled with creative outlets and animal companionship. You can usually find me painting or relaxing at home with my pets. I have three cats and a dog who keep life cozy!

Your background, values, and choices guide everything we do, and I would love to walk beside you through this massive life transition.
