About Iolani

Born and raised in a small town in the Berkshires, caregiving and compassion stem from deep within my core and are two of my defining characteristics.

I am on the long academic and experiential road toward becoming a Nurse Midwife, and this beautiful part of my journey has lead me to become a Birth Doula and to be honored in empowering and supporting women and families in these momentous times of their lives!

​

Some fun facts about me:

​- I am trilingual! (German, English, Spanish - learned in that order)

- I have traveled to and spent time in 53 countries!

- I used to live in a Skoolie (school bus converted to tiny home)

- I hiked the world's tallest free-standing mountain - Mt Kilimanjaro

- I knit the sweater I'm wearing in this photo (photo taken by the talented Avida Love Photography - avidalove.com)

- I am the first person in my family to graduate from college!
