Many years ago, I became drawn to end-of-life transitions through my volunteer work at Whitman-Walker Clinic in Washington, DC, then one of the nation’s leading community-based healthcare organizations serving people affected by HIV/AIDS during the height of the epidemic. In those years, I witnessed death, dying, and caregiving expressed in both profoundly beautiful and deeply painful ways. That experience sparked a lifelong curiosity—and ultimately a passion—for supporting individuals and families through one of life’s most meaningful passages.
I later completed the End-of-Life Doula training certificate program at the University of Vermont and immediately began volunteering in hospice. As a Doula, I am committed to creating a compassionate, calming space for individuals and their caregivers. I offer gentle guidance, practical support, and a grounded, heartfelt presence to help families navigate this time with clarity, dignity, and ease.

I am also deeply committed to helping people of all ages develop comprehensive end-of-life plans. I believe that having an end-of-life plan is one of the most meaningful, practical gifts a person can give themselves and the people they love.
