Your story matters. Let's tell it together.

I'm Niki, the storytelling death doula. I help you find meaning in your life by sharing your story through a printed book or honoring a legacy through eulogy, obituary, and funeral crafting.

Serving virtually and in-person throughout the Salt Lake City area.

Ways to work with me:

Eulogy & Obituary Crafting

I'll meet with you to help you create an obituary that honors one's life story.

Life story book creation

I work with you 1-on-1 to craft the story (or stories!) of your life into a printed, published book that's yours to keep.

funeral planning & celebration

We will work together to create a beautiful ceremony that honors your traditions, beliefs, and stories.

grief support

Grief sucks. Let's walk together on this journey.

Hi, there! I'm Niki.

I am a certified death doula helping you face your mortality and create meaning through the telling of your stories.

As a death doula and a writer, I strive to help others make sense of their lives and of their mortality, through my favorite medium…writing! To that end, I offer virtual biography services, where we can tell your life’s story in a printed book. My work centers upon the idea that viewing life with an eye towards finitude helps us live with intention and purpose: living presently while still striving towards the future.

Through our work together, I help you consider how you live with intention and create your legacy.

How it works:

1. Book a call.

Let's get to know each other! You'll tell me about yourself, your situation, and your needs and I'll share suggestions for a customized plan to meet your goals.

2. Choose a plan

Together, we'll decide on a path that best tells the story you wish to tell: whether it's a life story, an obituary, or a life honored through ceremony.

3. Tell your story.

We will meet for a pre-determined amount of interviews (virtually or in-person) where we'll get into the nitty-gritty of the stories and logistics.

As my death doula, what else can you help me with?

What’s important to you both in death and life? What does a life well-lived look like, FOR YOU, regardless of how much time remains? Your answers will shape our plan moving forward. EVERYONE can benefit from a session or two of this deep exploration!

Developing a plan with you so your wishes are known to all relevant parties during treatments and hospitalization

Let’s unpack your death anxieties, questions, phobias – I’m here for it all!

From death-positive spaces, mental health workers, grief support, and more, there are more options for help than you might think.

I am a sympathetic and loving presence as you navigate loss.
