A native of Michigan, Rachelle received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Michigan Flint. She has worked as a labor & delivery travel nurse, a childbirth educator, and a lactation counselor. Rachelle’s role as an educator is what prompted her to continue on to complete her Master’s degree in Midwifery from Frontier Nursing University. She saw a great need for thorough prenatal education throughout the course of pregnancy.

Rachelle is passionate about helping her patients take on an active role in their own health. From family planning, to creating birth plans, and managing menopause, Rachelle enjoys guiding women through all stages of womanhood. Her areas of special interest include infertility, contraception, natural family planning and working with teen and adolescent patients.

In her spare time, Rachelle is a busy wife and mother of four active children. Her favorite things include coffee, sunshine, and Hawaii.  She also loves to surprise the family with as many little getaways as they can squeeze into their schedules.
