I completed my midwifery education in Northern Ontario and worked in Toronto before moving to BC in 2020. I am grateful to now be living and working on the ancestral and traditional territory of the syilx Nation. Before midwifery, I studied Applied Linguistics, and while I’m always happy to chat about how we use language to get things done in the world, my fascination with bodies that grow babies took over.
I am forever awed by the magic that finds my heart and my hands in this work. I enjoy getting to know my clients and their families, supporting you to make the decisions that are right for your own body, baby, and family. Pregnancy and birth have taught me much about joy, grief, and surrendering to uncertainty.
I am deeply motivated by informed choice and autonomy in healthcare, passionate about health equity and reproductive justice, and grateful for the ways my work lets me support these values. I hope for midwifery to be the very start of community-building.
When I'm not catching babies, you can find me reading poetry, growing flowers, playing the fiddle, drinking so much tea, or having dance parties with my niblings. I am happiest with my hands in the dirt, making beautiful things.
It is an honour to be part of this transformative time in your life and I look forward to meeting you!
