Serving my immediate community in Seattle First Hill neighborhood, with a focus on serving fellow members of the trans community, I bring into my birthing doula work both my lived experience as a transgender person, and experience from my other work as a tattoo artist. I see both these parts of my life as foundational to my approach to doula work. All aspects of my life and work honor the human body’s resilience and ability to heal, our ability to transform both physically and mentally, and the ways that our changing bodies change our realities. From my tattooing work I bring my Bloodborn Pathogen Safety Certification, experience with PPE and medical safety, and a passion for guiding people through physically transformative and uncomfortable moments.

I became a doula because I feel very strongly that birth is not only a medical process, but a deeply emotional and transformative one. I believe labor and birth are experiences which deserves not only medical care, but also emotional care and human connection. You deserve to feel heard, seen, and cared for, as well as fully autonomous and powerful throughout your pregnancy and labor.

I believe everyone can benefit from a doula. I look forward to the chance to help you through the incredible experience of pregnancy and childbirth, and aid you in your entrance into a new chapter of life. I’m based out of Seattle’s First Hill neighborhood and serve clients in the immediate area.

As a Seattle born and raised local, it’s my honor to serve the communities I grew up in. Outside of work I’m an avid painter, enjoy swimming at our many beautiful beaches, and am loved by my two cats.
