What an honor it is to provide services that combine a passion for research and helping others. Surrounded by educators and genealogists, I grew up knowing the importance of family identity. I apply the same level of compassion, integrity and sensitivity to clients as I would my own family. My specialties include investigative genetic genealogy, western migration, and immigrant settlers of the Midwest.
