Jessica is a Certified Nurse-Midwife who has spent 19 years in the field of nursing. She has experience in postpartum, lactation, newborn and special care nursery, but her primary focus has been pregnancy, labor, and birth. Throughout her career, witnessing the compassionate care provided by exceptional midwives inspired her to pursue her master degree in Nurse-Midwifery. She is passionate about advocacy, consent, and the right to self-determination.
Jessica is a proud mother to 3 children, and she understands how impactful the care given during pregnancy and birth can be for the mother and family. Jessica and her family are avid boaters and love to spend the summer months on Lake Michigan.
