Biography

I enjoy my job as a certified nurse midwife because I love supporting my patients through multiple stages of their lives. I am passionate about physiologic birth and caring for my patients during such a vulnerable time. I feel honored to be there to celebrate these special moments with them. I also see patients for family planning and contraception, and offer mental health and infertility care. I feel strongly about empowering my patients through open and honest discussions. I believe each patient should be directly involved in their own health care, and I always educate them about their treatment options.

My experience includes time spent as a research nurse in the Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I had the opportunity to collaborate on cutting-edge research focused on treating and preventing conditions like pre-eclampsia, postpartum hemorrhage and preterm birth. One of the projects I was proud to work on was the development of an innovative intrauterine device, called the JADA System, to treat postpartum hemorrhage.

I loved being able to help birthing persons on a larger scale, but this experience also clarified just how much I love working one-on-one with patients and their families during pregnancy and birth. I use the knowledge I gained as a research nurse every day when educating and treating my patients.

I love that Ohio State supports so many of my passions – supporting routine, physiologic pregnancies and births while having the necessary resources and innovative health care options available when things don’t go as planned. I also appreciate that my patients can be involved in research that may benefit not just themselves, but countless others in the future.

When I’m not working, I enjoy baking, reading, spending time with my family and going on adventures with my dog.
