I was born and raised in Interior Alaska around a large, loud and loving family.  I have four sweet children who were all born with the help of licensed midwives.  Being a midwife is my calling and it was solidified after my first time giving birth; it was so transforming, so empowering, that I began the long journey of becoming a midwife myself.  I will never forget what it is like to grow a baby, take responsibility for my health, take a proactive role, and give birth with my own choices at the forefront of my midwife’s care.  That is my goal: to empower one person at a time, fathers and mothers, to find their own strength and listen to their own inner wisdom, which greatly benefits the whole family throughout the child rearing years and the community beyond.  There is a midwife who is right for every one, and every one deserves a midwife of their own.
