About me

My path to becoming a doula started five years ago during my own pregnancy. The experience of watching my baby girl’s weekly development sparked a passion that only grew stronger over time. Once I settled into motherhood, I fully committed to doula training, earning certifications as a Postpartum Doula, Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator, and Perinatal Nutrition Educator. I’ve also specialized in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for Birth Workers, which allows me to offer comprehensive support tailored to each family’s unique needs. Friends describe me as bubbly and outgoing, with a calming presence. In a client’s home, I quickly sense when to offer simplicity and hold space, or when conversation is needed. Balancing life as a mom and doula, I’ve learned the importance of self-care, finding joy in drawing, painting, and crafts. My daughter and I love exploring our community, with the Indianapolis Children’s Museum being a favorite spot.
