My journey into surrogacy started back in 2005, after a heartfelt conversation with a close high school friend who was struggling with infertility. That was the moment I realised life doesn’t always follow a straight path and families can grow in the most extraordinary ways.

In 2006, I became a surrogate, and it changed me forever. Helping someone achieve their dream of becoming parents filled my heart in a way I can’t even put into words. In 2024, I watched my surro babe cross the stage at her high school graduation, and in 2025, I got to celebrate the same milestone with her younger sister. Moments like these remind me that surrogacy doesn’t just touch one family – it changes lives for generations to come.

Since becoming a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in 2013, I’ve worked in maternity and medical-surgical care, and I’ve been part of the Canadian fertility world since 2009. My passion has always been guiding intended parents and surrogates with compassion, education, and steady support through every step of their journey.

These days, I enjoy a full and happy life with my husband and our dogs. Whether we’re out exploring, connecting with our community, or sitting down with a coffee (Starbucks is my weakness!), I believe in kindness, connection, and making a difference – one heart at a time.
