I've been a Nurse-Midwife since 1998 and have worked in a variety of practices. I've implemented in-hospital water births in a rural hospital, provided care for immigrants, and helped coordinate prenatal care for high-risk patients. I moved to Knoxville in 2019 for of the incredible opportunity to help develop a midwifery practice in the setting of an reputable academic institution. As a Florida transplant, I enjoy having seasons and appreciate the incredible natural beauty here in East Tennessee. I believe our practice is really something special, and it is truly an honor and privilege to serve women here in the greater Knoxville area.
