My journey to becoming a Nurse Midwife/Nurse Practitioner began at Johns Hopkins University, where I worked as a doula for low-income and refugee women while receiving my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Alarmed at the maternal health disparities plaguing our nation, I decided to become a Nurse Midwife/Nurse Practitioner in order to address these issues from the front lines. I received my Master of Science in Nursing with a specialty in Midwifery/Women’s Health from Emory University. Additionally, I studied public health to better understand the causes, as well as solutions for the frightening inequalities present in health care.

I make it my mission to provide education and respect to women so that they feel empowered to take charge of their health and make informed decisions. I have served as a Midwife/Nurse Practitioner for the last 7 years and
have worked with women all over the world, including South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, India, and Haiti. After battling my own journey with PCOS, I am the proud mother of a son and married to my high school sweetheart. I love spending time with my family, traveling, and blogging about women’s health issues. It is now my mission to empower women to navigate their individual health journeys.
