About

Karen resides in California with her husband and 4 kids. She is a U.S. Navy veteran and has a bachelor’s degree in business management. Karen’s love for motherhood fueled her need to help others experience the joy of parenthood. In 2014, a good friend shared she was carrying a baby as a gestational carrier. Karen was intrigued and decided to take a close look at gestational surrogacy. After the birth of her youngest daughter in late 2014, she decided to start the process of becoming a surrogate.Since then, she has had the privilege of being a surrogate 3 times; bringing twins into the world in June 2016, followed by another set of twins in December 2017, and a singleton in August 2019. While she had initially planned for just one surrogacy journey, the overwhelming emotions of joy and happiness she witnessed at the first birth ignited an even deeper passion for surrogacy and its positive impact on numerous families.
