Training Documentation

Relevant volunteer or advocacy work

I volunteer my time as Executive Director and Board Chair of TruDoulas of NJ, where I help families through programs like Mary’s Stork Closet, providing free baby essentials. I’ve organized diaper drives, spoken at community events, and partnered with hospitals and nonprofits to make care more accessible and equitable. I also mentor and train new doulas, because I believe every family deserves compassionate, culturally rooted support. For me, advocacy isn’t just professional—it’s personal. Serving, giving back, and standing beside parents during pregnancy and postpartum is at the heart of who I am.
