Billie is a dedicated professional committed to the idea that Women deserve the very best care, which she believes can only be achieved through a holistic approach that is dedicated to coaching, educating, and advocating for her patients and soon to be mothers. 

Billie started her career in 1988 as a Registered Nurse Graduating from the University Of Maryland School Of Nursing.  She enjoyed the role of nurse but became more active in patient care as a Certified Physician Assistant with a specialization in Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1993.  It was in the performance of her work as a PA that she became keenly aware of the health care discrepancies found in the care of women, it was the illumination of that fact that lead her to earn a Post Graduate Certificate in Midwifery in 2002.  In 2004 she went on to earn a Masters of Physician Assistant Studies.

Billie has welcomed over 1500 babies into the world, and feels absolutely grateful that she is able to provide a holistic, family centered midwifery care, which she has envisioned.
