Birth is transformative, and my work is built on continuous learning and a commitment to the families I support. Here is a look at the training, community, and experiences that shape my practice.

Being a doula is my Ikigai, the intersection of my passion, skills, and what the world needs. I am grateful for this work and the community that supports me, especially during World Doula Week.

It was a dream come true to learn from the legendary Mexican midwife Naoli Vinaver. This workshop on Rebozo skills enriched my practice with simple, effective techniques to help with labor progress and fetal positioning.

I am now a certified Active Mama prenatal fitness trainer. This training added more tools to my kit, including dance, cardio, labor drills, and breath work to help you prepare your body for birth.

I was honored to be invited to train the nursing staff at a family run nursing home in Rajamundry. Sharing my labor support skills with other care providers helps create ripples of change for better births.

I was honored to be featured on the Evidence Based Birth podcast to discuss culturally sensitive doula training in India. It's vital that we adapt our support to the unique needs of the families we serve.

Attending the Better Birthing Experience conference in Hyderabad was a joy. Connecting with maternity care givers, colleagues, and mentors from across the country fills me with hope and energy for this work.

The Doula Collective is my sisterhood. This video from our first physical retreat captures the connection and support we share, reminding us that we are not alone in this work.

About My Professional Journey & Community

My work goes beyond simply being present at a birth. I invest heavily in ongoing training—like mastering Rebozo techniques from Naoli Vinaver or becoming an Active Mama prenatal fitness trainer—to ensure I have the right tools to physically support you. This constant skill-building allows me to offer practical, hands-on relief during labor that makes a tangible difference in your comfort and progress.
