I am an Iowa Girl with a passion for birth and babies! For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated with pregnancy and birth. In 2015, I became a labor doula and I quickly realized birth work was for me. I decided to combine my excitement for birth with my passion for wellness and became a licensed massage therapist in 2019, specializing in prenatal, postpartum, and infant massage.
I am also a trained postpartum doula, placenta encapsulator, home birth assistant, and Stillbirthday bereavement doula. I trained with Stillbirthday in honor of my miscarried son, James.
During my own pregnancies and postpartum periods, I experienced first-hand the incredible highs and lows of new motherhood. Because of this, I’ve become even more inspired to serve women as they walk the journey. In 2021, I decided to pursue midwifery, which has been the calling placed on my heart since I was young.
Finally, in 2022, I started Christian Birthworkers of Central Iowa; a group of faith-filled people who care for families pre-conception, prenatally, and beyond.
Outside of birth & babies, I’ve taught piano for 10+ years and dream of owning a homestead. I enjoy spending time with my electrician husband, Connor, and busy little girls, Remi and Maisie. We love dancing (country or vintage swing) and cooking up tasty eats for entertaining guests.
I was born and raised in Iowa and moved back to the Des Moines area with my husband in early 2022. We were expecting our first baby and excited to live near family and friends again!
In 2019 I became licensed as a massage therapist and spent a majority of my time practicing sports and orthopedic massage. Since having my son I have seen how beneficial massage can be during pregnancy and postpartum and I am excited to help women during this truly special time in their lives. I love the flexibility that massage provides to be present with my family and the ability to connect with others and make a difference in their lives. I find so much joy being around both my husband Ryan and my son Liam and exploring the world together. We both play ice hockey, love being outside with our little guy, and spending time with our friends and family.
