General Info

For Megan, midwifery is her calling. She became a midwife to educate and empower women to take control of their well-being. Supporting women through all of life’s transitions is a fulfilling, humbling and fun job for her. She gets excited to go to work each day as she thinks about the women she will meet and the relationships she will build.Megan is particularly interested in promoting physiologic birth—which tends to be both safer and healthier—and is passionate about working to reduce racial disparities in maternity care. She speaks Spanish and is committed to improving migrant farmworker health. Having received a clinical doctorate in nursing, she is also interested in implementing research into clinical practice to improve care and outcomes.Megan volunteers as chair of the Healthy Birth Initiative, on the advisory committee for the Michigan Value Collaborative obstetrics initiative, and on the board of the Michigan affiliate of the American College of Nurse-Midwives. In her free time, she enjoys being active outdoors (hiking, road cycling and running), taking ceramics classes, traveling and eating delicious vegan cuisine.I approach the transitions in a woman's lifetime, such as menarche, pregnancy, birth and menopause, as normal parts of life. I aim to be with women along their individual journeys to empower and support them. I also recognize the importance of being able to identify when something is not normal and help is needed. I hope that the women I serve feel listened to, cared for, and confident in their ability to make decisions about their healthcare.
