Bio
My goal is to educate, support, and empower women to make choices about their health that they feel good!
I believe in providing women with education and options that empower them to make healthy decisions that contribute to better health for themselves and their families. I see the importance and benefit in a model of shared decision making. When I'm not midwifing it up I like to write, read, run, bake and hang with my kids and husband!
I also blog for South Shore Health. Check out my blog posts!
