mother
Being a parent influences every decision I make in my professional and personal life. It is the most important and rewarding job I have ever had.
doula
From 2008-2015, I worked as an independent birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator and birth assistant in the Kansas City area. My trauma-informed perspective comes directly from these experiences.
band leader
Back in the aughts, I was the lead singer in a band. I was managing complex projects, events, and experiences long before I did it in my day job regularly.
