My Training
I became a nursing parent in 2013 and, through my personal challenges, became passionate about evidence-based lactation support. I am a La Leche League Leader, Certified Breastfeeding Specialist with training through Lactation Education Resources. With a passion for advancing equity in lactation and infant feeding support, I also act as Equity Advocate for La Leche League of Minnesota and the Dakotas, and work as a lactation educator providing trainings for birth, lactation, and postpartum professionals and volunteer supporters on the topics of inclusion and justice in lactation support.
I hold a BA in Gender, Women and Sexuality Studies from the University of Minnesota.
I'm experienced in postpartum mental health, working and breast/chestfeeding, supporting LGBTQ families postpartum, and family nutrition.
I am currently available for speaking engagements on the topic of breastfeeding, chestfeeding, queer and transgender inclusion in the lactation field, supporting parents with gender dysphoria, and supporting breastfeeding parents who are trauma survivors.
