I received my Masters Degree in Speech Pathology from University of North Texas in 1994 and I worked ten years in adult rehabilitation in Houston hospitals with a specialty in Swallowing Disorders. I moved to Vancouver, Canada in 2009 and began volunteering with a community breastfeeding support group. I enjoyed helping moms and babies so much that I began the UCSD Hybrid Lactation Consultant program in 2013-2015 and became a board certified Lactation Consultant in 2015. Part of my training was with WIC's Lactation Care Center in Dallas, Texas. Since that time, I have worked with a not for profit breastfeeding community support group, provided small group clinical support and have provided home visits for lactation care. I became a Lactation Consultant because I had a wonderful LC help me with my first child and it made all the difference in starting an amazing breastfeeding journey with my son and later, my daughter. I have recently moved to Galveston and am excited to help women in the local community to achieve their personal breastfeeding goals.

I have been working with breastfeeding families for over 15 years. As a mother of four, I had my fair share of breastfeeding challenges which led me to the work I do now. My greatest desire is to help breastfeeding families feel heard and supported. We will work together to uncover and overcome the underlying causes of breastfeeding challenges. I will ensure you have an actionable plan to help you reach your breastfeeding goals and the support you need to see it through. I look forward to working with you.
