The Team

I have been a Registered Nurse for 14 years and have spent my entire career supporting pregnant people, infants, and their families. I started my career in Labor and Delivery helping families bring their beautiful babies into the world. I then worked in Public Health nurse home visiting to support low-income families in pregnancy.  Next, I had my own babies and realized that all families can benefit from the support of a personal nurse.  With this realization, Graceful Pregnancy was born!

I am a proud graduate of UCLA School of Nursing for my Bachelors of Science in Nursing and UT Austin for my Masters of Nursing in Maternal Child Nursing with a Public Health emphasis.  I am both a Registered Nurse, certified Public Health Nurse, and Lactation Education Specialist with the State of California.  

  I have specialized training in trauma-informed nursing care, patient centered therapeutic communication, perinatal mental health, nurse home visiting, racism’s effect on pregnancy and birth and how to mitigate those effects, support of the LGBTQ2S+ community, infant feeding through the first year of life, child proofing, and more.
