Trace your roots

Genetic-genealogy research — finding a parent, an ancestor, or a lineage — conducted to professional genealogical standards, combining DNA, records, and careful interpretation.

My approach centers often-overlooked female ancestors through mitochondrial-DNA analysis and story, and honors what the search means to you.

How a first conversation works

I like to come prepared, so we start with a short intake form — not an open calendar. Once you submit it, I review it and send you a scheduling link. That way our time together is focused from the first minute.

  1. Complete the genealogy intake form below.
  2. I review it and send you a scheduling link.
  3. We meet, confirm scope and any fee in writing, and plan the work.
  4. Research proceeds at a humane pace; findings are shared with context and care.
Before your first call (genealogy)
• It helps to know whether you already have DNA results — for example 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, or FamilyTreeDNA. The intake form asks, and your answer shapes what the first call covers.
Any applicable fee and the scope of work are confirmed separately in writing before we meet.
Intake form — coming soon. My genealogy intake is being finalized. In the meantime, send your goal and whether you already have DNA results, and I'll follow up with next steps and your scheduling link. Use the contact form →

I'm one person doing careful work, so I keep a waitlist — you'll always get a warm confirmation, clear next steps, and your scheduling link once your intake is in.

Important boundaries. This public page does not provide DNA results, private genealogy research, or DNA-platform access. Please don't submit DNA files, kit numbers, or health information through public pages. Read the full boundaries →
