Personalized, evidence-informed care that honors physiologic birth, informed consent, and the transformative journey into motherhood.
Background, Training, & Experience
I completed my midwifery training with The Farm Midwives in Summertown, TN, which is world-renowned for its expertise in physiologic birth. I achieved my certification through the rigorous NARM PEP process and continue to prioritize professional growth by maintaining over 45 hours of continuing education annually in topics such as fetal monitoring and obstetric emergencies.
I am certified in Neonatal Resuscitation, Basic Life Support, Pediatric Advanced Life Support, and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (all of which are renewed every 2 years). I also actively participate in local peer review with Tennessee midwives to ensure accountability and excellence in my practice.
I hold a biology degree, magna cum laude with highest honors, from Sweet Briar College in Virginia, and earned my nursing degree from the College of the Redwoods in Humboldt County, CA. In addition to my midwifery work, I am a trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE), serving victims of sexual violence in southern Middle Tennessee through the Center of Hope.
