I am a mom of three, all of whom I breastfed. Currently still breastfeeding my youngest who just turned one! I started breastfeeding my now oldest not knowing very much and during that journey with her I learned a lot! It’s truly where my love for breastfeeding started. I understand and am empathetic to both the joys and difficulties that can come with the breastfeeding journey.

I love being able to help not only guide, but empower families, on their lactation journey! I love being a part of the exciting moments when things are going well and improving, yes, but helping families find their voice in their journey, even in the difficult parts, is really what makes me love what I do.

My husband, Jake, and our three sweet girls - Reagan, Oaklyn & Gemma.

I love spending time outside with my family. You can find us out there most days, especially when the weather is nice! When I get a few moments to myself I love a good mystery novel and maybe some shameless binge-watching of old Grey’s Anatomy episodes.

I knew I wanted to specialize in lactation after the birth of my first daughter. I was a labor & delivery nurse at the time and had helped moms with breastfeeding countless times, but never really knew all the work that went into that journey until I started it myself.

I truly became a IBCLC to help families feel confident in their lactation journey. I want to help them celebrate the successes and goals met, but I also want to walk alongside them through the bumps along the way. I want families to feel heard and listened to, making them empowered to feel like they have a voice in their feeding journey!

I want families to feel supported with absolutely no pressure. I want families to be able to ask for help or tell me when things aren’t working, knowing there is no judgment! This is your journey and I am here to make it the best one possible!
