I hold a Bachelor of Psychology, with a major in Gender and Sexuality, and have over ten years of lived and professional experience in birth and perinatal settings. I am currently taking a break from doula practice while continuing my studies and gaining work experience in the mental health and care sector.

My interests focus on pregnancy, birth, motherhood, and the physical and psychological demands of care, examined through a lens of gender, sexuality, and social systems. I am particularly attentive to how dominant cultural narratives shape experiences of womanhood, parenthood, and identity, and the ways LGBTQIA+ individuals and families navigate these spaces.

Alongside this, I work as a film photographer, exploring the body, care, and labour, and examining how maternal and perinatal experiences are represented and understood. My creative and reflective work engages with evidence, lived experience, and social analysis to challenge assumptions, highlight inequities, and explore how care and identity are understood in contemporary society.

I am committed to inclusive and evidence-informed practice and writing, with particular attention to LGBTQIA+ individuals and families, mothers, and those often marginalised in dominant narratives around gender, identity, and care.
