About Me
Who I Am
Hi! I'm Danielle, I'm so glad you found me!
As a birth equity and public health advocate, I have worked as a full-spectrum doula across 4 states over 14 years. I currently offer doula support and consulting services across the Bay Area. I love working with families in the transition to parenthood and offer personalized education, support, and care for births of any trimester.
​
I am currently working on projects related to the Medi-Cal Doula Benefit Implementation in California and building community capacity and connecting services to migrant indigenous communities in the Bay Area.
​
Public Health Researcher and Doula Workforce Consultant
With over 15 years of experience in health equity programming, community-engaged research, curriculum development, dynamic facilitation, small business management, and direct client service as a doula, I bring a multifaceted perspective to my work.
​
I am dedicated to solving urgent public health challenges. Whether supporting doula workforce development, guiding leadership on strategy and planning for start-ups and community-based organizations, leading trainings, or coaching on cross-cultural communication and building inclusive organizations, my approach centers on solutions that prioritize those we serve. My expertise in public health and reproductive justice, coupled with a deep understanding of healthcare systems, informs my work.
​
In May 2023, I earned my Master’s in Public Health from UC Berkeley, further enhancing my leadership skills and knowledge of healthcare policy and systems of care.
