Hey, hi hello! When I’m not doula-ing, my days are spent with people I love moving my body, making art, exploring new places, binge-ing reality TV. I also have a soft spot for hugs that last just a little too long.…and steam rooms, obviously.

By day (and sometimes night), I’m a doctoral researcher deep in the messy and chaotic world of late medieval sexuality and reproductive justice. My research has taken me into academic institutions and museums across the globe. I began as a history curator in Pittsburgh before moving to Los Angeles to train as a doula under midwife Johanna Storey, whose work bridges ancestral midwifery traditions and contemporary care practices.

Since then, I’ve supported families across a wide range of traditions and experiences, witnessing firsthand what happens when consent and autonomy are honored, and when they are not. That lived work deepened my commitment to reproductive justice, both past and present.

Now, my love of medieval scandal and modern reproductive politics converge in my PhD, where I trace the evolution of reproductive autonomy across bloodlines and institutions.
