I have been involved in the field of reproductive maternal and child health for over 20 years.  I worked in public health for 7 years shifting my focus to babies and moms and a lactation career after having 3 children.  I earned my B.S. in Community Health from SFSU in 1987, attended UCLA’s Lactation Educator Program in 1991, and completed my Masters of Public Health in 1995 from San Jose State University with my theses on "Breastfeeding for the Working Mom and/or Student."  I passed the boards to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in 1996.

I currently have a private practice and am Owner of Healthy Horizons Breastfeeding Center in the San Francisco Bay Area, acting as a Clinical Lactation Consultant, Health Educator, and Perinatal Educator for local hospitals and pediatric groups.  As part of my practice, I operate support groups for new moms and babies, and working moms; and have provided consultations, pump rentals, and health products for over 16 years to the community.  My specialties include suck & swallowing disorders; working and breastfeeding; infant nutrition, care and normal newborn behavior; breastfeeding challenges such as breast refusal, sore nipples, mastitis, weight gain/loss, and milk supply problems.

It is my goal to provide accurate, supportive, and comprehensive breastfeeding support to breastfeeding families, and to provide increasing access to high quality breastfeeding and baby products at affordable prices.  For more information, see my Radio Bio.
