I work closely with my fabulous, skilled team of midwives to provide family-centered care by helping to ensure optimal health for a mother and her child, encouraging a trust in the process of birth and helping to ease this joyful transition for families.

I am always learning from this work that I love and the people I meet in it, and always I am humbled by the power that women possess and the wisdom in the eyes of the newborns.

I am at home here.  Right where I am supposed to be….serving midwives, student midwives and many, many families.  I am honored to have witnessed more than 350 babies enter this world, hundreds of beautiful families grow.

As I volunteered under the supervision of the tireless Filipina staff midwives, I had the opportunity to experience a high volume of births. The families that I served and grew to love taught me so much about the strength of the birth process and the beauty of each moment of life.
