After giving birth to my son and experiencing severe postpartum depression, I pivoted careers and turned my attention towards teaching individuals how to best communicate their needs and emotions in the postpartum period through work as a life coach. In 2021, I became a Certified Professional Life Coach and completed a DONA International Postpartum Doula Workshop. In 2022 I completed my certificates in both Wellness Counseling (Cornell University) and Maternal Mental Health (Postpartum Support & 2020 Mom). I am currently working on my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Certification with plans to add certifications in both prenatal and postnatal yoga as I work to expand both my own wellness journey and my wellness offerings.
I built my career as a passionate and empathetic storyteller, with over seven years of experience in branding and marketing. I focused on digital storytelling, brand identity, and relationship building for non-profits, independent brands, and podcasts. I now hope that my unique skillset and personal experience with postpartum depression will provide a safe haven for those in the postpartum stage of life. Through my work, I hope to play even a small role in transforming how we care for mothers.
In my free time, I can be found exploring my new home in southern Italy, listening to audiobooks or podcasts, and advocating for postpartum mental health support. I am also also a military spouse of over seven years and am passionate about supporting military families. I use the pronouns she/her.
