About

About Me

I am a homebirth midwife serving families in Columbia, SC, and the greater Midlands area. I am completing the final stage of my training under the supervision of Midwife Carey Glenn, and it is my honor to walk with families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with presence, reverence, and care.

​

For the past 8 years, I have been devoted to birth work—first as a doula and now as a midwife. My calling to nurture families began even earlier, in work that spanned caring for children and tending elders. These experiences have shaped the way I serve: with patience, respect, and a deep trust in the wisdom woven through every stage of life.

​

My midwifery philosophy is rooted in traditional and community-centered care. I believe that birth is an ancient unfolding, best supported when women are surrounded by trust, safety, and continuity. My role is not to manage or control the process, but to walk beside families, offering guidance, resources, and steady presence so that mothers feel held, sovereign, and empowered.

​

In addition to midwifery, I offer bodywork, specializing in craniosacral therapy and gentle balancing sessions for mothers and babies. This hands-on care complements birth beautifully, easing tension, supporting nervous system regulation, and fostering deeper connection and healing.

​

Outside of birth work, I am a mother and a lover of the natural world. My daughter is my greatest inspiration, and I am grateful every day to walk alongside the families of Columbia and the greater Midlands, offering care that is both traditional and heart-centered.
