Marisa began her career in birth work as a labor and delivery nurse, spending six years supporting families before completing her master’s degree at Frontier Nursing University in 2023. After relocating across the country, she practiced as a certified nurse-midwife in Charlotte, NC, before joining TP4W in January 2026.
Originally from Idaho, Marisa is married and has two children who keep her busy and smiling. Outside of work, she enjoys cooking new recipes with her family, staying active, doing puzzles, taking road trips, attending live music events, and reading motivational books.
Marisa is deeply passionate about patient education across all stages of care, including conception, pregnancy, postpartum, and gynecologic health. She values empowering patients through exercise and nutrition, alongside medical intervention when needed. Her favorite part of being a nurse-midwife is witnessing the innate power of physiologic birth while providing skilled, compassionate support. She is especially passionate about supporting VBACs, offering hands-on labor support, and reminding patients of their own strength. Marisa strongly believes that combining the midwifery model with obstetric expertise provides the highest quality care for patients and their families.
