A series of dreams and conversations with friends and family members who were doulas led me to birthwork in 2017. It wasn’t until I had attended a number of births in the hospital as a full spectrum doula that I met a homebirth midwife. She unveiled a different paradigm of care than the one I had been witnessing in the hospital and through her mentorship, I began learning the art, science and lineage of homebirth midwifery.

I attended Birthwise Midwifery School in Maine for one year prior to its closure in 2021 and began apprenticing with Rebecca that same year. I spent three years learning from and alongside Rebecca and the families of MotherSeed Midwifery who generously included me in their care. I then went on to train with midwives in group practices in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and the Philippines. I completed the didactic portion of my education at the College of Traditional Midwifery in Tennessee and returned to Maine in 2025. After five years of education and training, I became a Certified Professional Midwife in 2026 and am thrilled to be back at MotherSeed Midwifery.

I chose to pursue homebirth midwifery in order to serve families in a way that felt most in line with my values. Midwifery, to me, is defined by choice – the ability to make choices about our bodies, families and babies that feel most aligned with our personal, cultural and familial backgrounds, and to have that choice-making dialogue with the most up to date research and evidence. Outside of midwifery, I enjoy spending time with my family, being outside, and dancing tango. I look forward to getting to know you and your family.
