We're past the small talk, right?
Born and raised in Albuquerque, NM.
My little brother has down syndrome, he has completely molded who I am.
He teaches me how to love others unconditionally, how to let go and everything I know about being patient.
My whole childhood and adulthood has been spent around children/adults with special needs, they are my people and they also know I am theirs.
​
I am one of those girls who was labeled throughout my childhood as being “sensitive.”
I’ve learned to use that “sensitivity” as my super power.
I have a daughter and I am teaching her about her super powers.
I tend to not shy away from emotions or feelers (okay, sometimes but just my own).
Instead, I try my best to embrace them, I think I am pretty good at helping other people embrace them too.
​
After years of searching and engaging in various beautiful specialties as a nurse; childhood psychiatry, primary care, education and labor and delivery and most recently in pediatric hospice.
I have been honored to be a part of the journey of many families.
I believe that I have a team of tiny human angels supporting me where ever I go.
And I still have this longing to do more.
​
I want to find ways to help others learn their super powers.
To intentionally connect with others in different ways, various forms.
I enrolled back in school to work towards becoming an Internationally Board-Certified Lactation Consultant.
I picked up a camera and haven’t put it down yet (lots of photos of my animals).
I want to provide memories, empowerment, support, connection through photos.
Labor. Birth. First and last breaths. Families who have children with special needs. Motherhood.
​
The moments you feel like might be “too much” for someone.
The times where you feel afraid to be who you are.
Intentional moments with each other, together.
That’s where I want to be with you.
I can meet you where you are in your journey, come along side and together we can create something to hold in our hearts.
​
Let me help you unlearn you that you are not “too much.”
Maybe I can show you your super powers. Or maybe you can show me mine.
Maybe together, we can embrace the emotions behind the moments.
