Medicine, motherhood,
and everything between.

“I founded Bloom & Grow because I lived the gap I now fill.”

My journey into breastfeeding medicine began, unexpectedly, during my neonatology fellowship. I was pregnant with twins after a long struggle with infertility and PCOS. Working full-time in a NICU while pumping every three hours taught me something no textbook could — that even with every medical resource at my fingertips, breastfeeding was hard.

I saw brilliant mothers give up not because they wanted to, but because the system around them didn't have the specialized care they needed. Lactation consultants are essential — but there was no one bridging the gap between lactation support and full medical evaluation. No one to prescribe. No one to image a suspected abscess. No one to sit with a mother through her postpartum mental health and her feeding journey simultaneously.

So I trained. And trained. And then I built the practice I wish had existed for me.

Today, as Mississippi's only board-certified breastfeeding medicine physician, I care for mothers and babies with a level of medical depth that our state has never had access to before. Every family that walks through our doors deserves that.
