More about Me
I am married and have three beautiful children. Jan was my midwife for all three. I became interested in midwifery while pregnant with my second child. After my son’s birth I talked to Jan about my desire to become a midwife. About a year later (2003) I attended my first student conference held by the Colorado Midwives Association. I soon became involved with student study groups. I also became pregnant with my third child at that time. When my youngest was over a year I took a midwife assistant training with Tracy Ryan, CNM and Kris Bagiu, CPM. I assisted at my first birth in February of 2005. I also started assisting Jan that summer. I started my apprenticeship with Jan at the beginning of 2006. We have been working together since then.
Although having my three children at home has helped me in many ways as a midwife, it is my deep rooted belief that this is my life path that keeps me commitment to be “with women” during childbirth. This commitment drives me to be a good midwife and to support the longevity of midwifery in Colorado. I have supported and served on the Board on Directors of the Colorado Midwives Association as my way of continually working for the cause of midwifery.
