About Me

Based in Clemmons, NC, I provide expecting mothers with the emotional and physical support they need to have a gentle, fulfilling, and positive birthing experience.

With Mr. Doula, you can rest assured that everything will be handled. I approach birth holistically, and I am humbled and honored to share my expertise with women and their families in Winston-Salem and surrounding areas. Contact me to get started.

​

I am a 49-year-old father of four. I have a wonderful wife named Kim, my father and stepmother, a stepfather and another stepmother, a younger brother, a German step-sister, and a German step-brother. Additionally, I have a large extended family throughout NC. Before college and career, I began working in my family's business (a hardware store) in Raeford, NC.  I acquired my degree in Computer Information Systems and then began my IT career.  I have worked in IT since I was 23, but most recently, I spent the past ten years as an IT consultant. 

​

Eleven years of my IT career were spent at a local hospital, which contributed significantly to my interest in birth work, and in 2009, I began to feel called to birth work.  As life often goes, dreams take a back seat to reality. Therefore, it has taken me this long to fulfill my goal of working with expectant families. My family is very supportive, as is most of the local birth worker community. I am so excited and honored to now offer support to expectant mothers and their loved ones through the blessing of birth.

​

I received my initial training from the CAPPA Academy. Additionally, I have surrounded myself with many very knowledgeable, highly experienced Doulas and Midwives, who have helped prepare me to support women during the birthing process.  I'm continually reading and furthering my knowledge about birth work.

​

Additionally, I am a first-year Midwifery student at Ancient Art Midwifery, taught by Pure Birth Midwifery (Christine Strothers).

​

In my free time, I enjoy riding motorcycles, mechanics, and weight training.
