OK SO...

I have been passionate about the wonders of pregnancy and birth since I can remember. Anytime I would see someone pregnant, or think about folx preparing for a new addition, it excited and fascinated me. As I grew older, my passion was also joined by a strong force of activism and organizing in the face of attacks on reproductive rights.

In my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA, the rates at which black and brown bodies are fatally targeted is dire and continues to get worse. 

​In high school, I worked on several projects regarding the improvement of health literacy, awareness, and justice. 

I assume that the main reason you are on this website is because you are a) pregnant/expecting b) learning about doulas c)both! So, if you want to know more about the other various projects I have worked on, check out my LinkTree!

MY DOULA JOURNEY

I started my doula journey early on in 2023, and as I did research about which route I was interested in, I found a wide array of ways to practice. Amongst my research, I initially was positive my training would be through Doulas Of North America right? WRONG. I found that other agencies aligned more with what was important to me. As I navigated to other businesses I found that the gaping hole of access was very much applicable to me, and ultimately decided to enroll in certification training under BEST Doula Training. I found their message inspiring, and their training realistic as well as comprehensive. 

And thus....RADIX was born in July of 2023.
