A little About Me

Hi Folks, thank you for visiting my page and learning a little more about me. I am a passionate champion for birth, parenting, and human liberation. I came to this field of service in late 2017 when I attended an orientation hosted by Oakland Better Birth Foundation. There I was introduced to doula work and its essential impact in addressing the devastating maternal and fetal mortality rates in the U.S., especially for Black and Indigenous birthing people. I learned then the transformative power that birth can provide survivors of abuse when survivors are well prepared and supported for birth. Birthwork is radical activism in action when the intention is to provide the best birth and postpartum outcomes to all who birth and parent. 

I began my training with Oakland Better Birth Foundation and then continued my training with Natural Resources, San Francisco, in Birth (2018) and Postpartum Doula Care (2021). I am currently completing my Childbirth Education (CBE) Facilitation Training with Cornerstone Birthwork Training (2022). In addition, I have taken the Abortion Doula continued education course through Birthing Advocacy Doula Training (2022). I have worked within the SF Birth Community through Natural Resources for four years, assisting families with babywearing, lactation products assistance, and facilitating a new parent support group .

I voraciously continue my education, learning daily about reproductive justice, lactation support and postpartum care. This field is endlessly rich with knowledge. Our community of birthworkers is dedicated to practicing and sharing trauma-informed, culturally-sensitive, and anti-capitalist methods of care. As we say, the personal is political. What is more personal than birth?

I am committed to my interpersonal development in order to continuously examine and resolve my biases to best expand my understanding for the many identities and experiences I support. This daily personal inventory informs the care I provide. I am a fierce champion for parents to access and experience the birth and postpartum care that suits them best. Together, as part of your birth and postpartum care team, I am dedicated to providing kind, compassionate, non-judgmental, attentive, and nurturing support. 


Through relationship and through my practice as a postpartum & parenting companion I intend for my impact to stand for liberation, justice, and community. We are not meant to be alone. Together, we are stronger. Presence is something that I offer first and foremost- to be a witness and partner alongside you during your life transition. What excites me most about this field of service is the opportunity to decolonize birth and parenting. I support families to trust their bodies, to engage in their ancestral and cultural wisdom, as well as to promote parents’ informed consent and decision-making. Also, the most anti-capitalist practice of all… I advocate and support you to REST so you can BOND & HEAL.

Other Fun Facts About Me

First, you should know I’m a Leo (Sagittarius-rising and Pisces-Moon). In other words, I am a fun-loving, protective, intuitive, and Love-driven being.  I am a brown, cis, full-bodied, multi-ethnic, decolonizing, polyamorous queer woman. I am Mom to three of my favorite people and former wombmates, who are now 25, 15 & 12 years old.  I have been married for 16 years to my husband. He and I have been ethically non-monogamous for nearly ten years and counting. 

I was a young single mom with my first child. Hold up… I should say I was a fierce AF single mom who still reflects on the strength and wisdom of my younger self for all she has instilled in me and how I use those humbling first lessons to support new parents now.  I continue to evolve as a parent each day. My joy comes in raising liberated children by celebrating their identities and admiring their own inner wisdom, talents, and unique gifts. We raise our children in a sex-positive, body-positive, anti-racist home, where we openly discuss topics concerning race, identity, gender, and sexuality. One of our children is non-binary. Being a witness to their journey teaches me so much about how to meet them wherever they are each day and how to gently and lovingly hold space for all they contemplate and express.

I am also a registered officiant. I have had the pleasure and honor to officiate weddings and a celebration of life. I am also a Reiki practitioner and have been trained as a yoga instructor, focusing on breathwork and meditation. I am a pleasure activist. I practice conscious-spiritual kink for erotic and energy healing. I enjoy open water swimming in the SF Bay, hiking, lifting weights and being physically active in nature. I have recently taken up dancing bachata, and I am obsessed! I’m always in the middle of at least three books, and I love listening to podcasts.

Family is who makes you feel at home. In my care, all family configurations are honored and celebrated.  Queer, trans, straight, single-parent, polyamorous, blended, co-parenting, and adoptive families - I am here to honor your heritage and legacy.
