My name is Amy

I’m a death doula and baby thanatologist working toward offering death care in Salt Lake City, Utah. 

I don’t yet know what shape my offerings will take, but I’m interested in death work that is anticapitalist, abolitionist, queer, and reciprocal with the land.

After nine very sacred and grieved years in Seattle, I’m back where I grew up and where four generations of my dead are buried.

I’d love to work with others in the area to abolish the funeral industrial complex and build systems that give all Utahns access to affordable, sustainable death care free of corporate influence.

Training

Nobody needs certification to do this work.
It is old work that has always been the people’s work.

These certificates only mean I have the resources for structured training and that I learn well in that environment—not that I am more qualified than other doulas with other experience!
