Science meets lived experience

I am a scientist, writer, and mother exploring the realities of postpartum through both research and lived experience.

My work focuses on helping people better understand matrescence, postpartum recovery, and the complex biological and emotional transitions that follow birth.

Through writing, speaking, and education, I aim to translate evidence into guidance that supports mothers and those who care for them.
