“My passion is to empower expectant moms through education. When you know what to anticipate, the journey toward purposeful preparation can begin. I am an RN and veteran birth worker with over 15 years in hospital labor and delivery and community childbirth education. My most recent birth work has been as birth assistant for Grace Midwifery Collective. I am a mother of four adult children (Midwife Grace was my first) and MaMi to seven grandchildren.
