Medical Advisor

Hi, I’m Kacie! I am a registered nurse with a passion for fertility and women’s health. I always knew I wanted to be a nurse and specialize in women’s health after experiencing an endometriosis diagnosis myself. After I graduated with my bachelor’s degree in nursing, I spent my first two years of nursing working in oncology, became chemo-certified and helped my patients fight cancer. Although oncology will always have a special place in my heart, specializing in fertility and women’s health was always my dream and I soon found myself working at a local fertility clinic. After working at the fertility clinic for a few years, I decided to start my own business as a fertility coach, providing support and helping women on their fertility journeys, both TTC and those seeking fertility treatments such as IUI or IVF. And that’s how I found Premom!

I am not only a medical advisor for Premom, but I also have been an avid user. Premom helped me learn so much about my own cycle, eventually leading me to conceive my first baby. My own TTC journey did not come easy and has given me so much perspective into the TTC world and the struggles that come with it, allowing me to connect deeper with my clients and other Premom users. Have questions about your own TTC journey, or maybe just need an ear to listen, I’m here for you. You can book a consultation with me right in the Premom app. Sending you the best of luck on your journey to your dream family!
