Hi! My name is Sydney and I am a birth and abortion/miscarriage doula and a photographer. I currently live in Carrboro, NC while I attend UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health as a MPH candidate focusing on Maternal, Child, & Family Health. I graduated with a bacherlor’s degree in Community and Global Public Health and a minor in Gender & Health from the University of Michigan.

I am a Certified Doula - Labor from ProDoula, as well as DONA-trained for birth doula services and trained in abortion/miscarriage care by the Colorado Doula Project. I’m currently working as a contractor with Doulas of Raleigh and independently in the Triangle Area. I have experience as a volunteer doula with the Dial-a-Doula program, as well as private doula work and an internship with a home-birth midwife. Please visit the ‘Doula Services’ page for more details.

In addition to doula work, I am also a freelance photographer, capturing births, graduations, sports, and more! I started photography 9 years ago, while working for my high school’s online newspaper, Silver Chips Online. I’ve worked for the Michigan Daily’s photo staff as an Assistant Editor and Staff Photographer. I’ve completed a variety of assignments for the Daily and other events and sessions outside of that work, as well! Check out the ‘Photography Services’ tab to view my portfolio and contact me!
