About this business

About me

As a doula, my role is simply to be with you. We can talk when you're up for it, or not. We can work on administrative tasks to get your affairs in order, plan a party, prepare things to leave behind for your loved ones, or nothing at all. We'll figure it out, together.

How I began

I trained to become an EOL doula in November 2025, hoping to gain more knowledge for myself and my loved ones about death and dying, how I can support others facing the end of their life, and how I can be better prepared for my own.

Why families choose me

I have a calm, warm approach and can be a steady presence in the midst of the many highs and lows and everything in between that comes with this journey.

Common questions

How far do you travel?

I'm willing to travel up to an hour driving time outside of the city.

How do we get started? What's the first step?

I like to start with a free 15-minute video call so we can meet each other, you can ask questions, and we can see if it's a good fit. Send me a message here and we can get something scheduled!
