My name is Micki (she/her). I've been a student midwife with Fig since January 2023. I am about to begin my 4th year at Mercy In Action College of Midwifery. The very first birth I witnessed was the traditional hospital birth of my youngest brother. I knew, without actually knowing, that things could be better. Years later, two of my good friends had midwives with their births and gave me the other perspective I knew was possible. I wanted to know how I could help facilitate that type of experience for others. Shortly thereafter I began my venture into the birth world. I became a birth doula first and then added in postpartum doula work. Eight years later I decided to expand my education even further by starting the journey to become a midwife. I love supporting families as they embark on this really miraculous time becoming parents, whether it's for the first time or adding another wonderful addition to their family. Thank you for allowing me in your space as you transform throughout your pregnancy and birth journey.
