What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my nursing skills while promoting maternal and infant health in a supportive environment.

As a highly experienced registered nurse and lactation consultant, I have dedicated my career to supporting mothers and infants through their breastfeeding journey. With over four years of experience in lactation education, I excel in clinical leadership, providing care for the mother-infant dyad, and offering comprehensive breastfeeding and bottle-feeding support. My commitment to family education and community involvement has allowed me to make a significant impact in the lives of many families.

Currently, I am the CEO and owner of Lanna & Co. Lactation Consulting, LLC, where I provide independent lactation consultation and breastfeeding support services. My professional journey includes diverse experiences in pediatrics, maternal/child nursing, labor and delivery, and postpartum care. I am also pursuing my Master of Science in Nursing with a concentration in Primary Care Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, which will further enhance my ability to provide high-quality care to my patients.
