I graduated from Aveda Institute Minneapolis in 1999 and got a job right out of school with Juut Salon and spa. I quickly knew I wanted to pursue the medical side of skin care. That brought me to the Carillon Clinic associated with Minneapolis Plastic Surgery. I then worked for a local dermatologist in Eden Prairie where I started gaining an interest in laser treatments and could really see the benefit they had on all different skin conditions. I had started a family while there and went on maternity leave. When I returned to work I joined Rejuvenation Partners in Edina where my main focus was IPL (intense pulse light treatments). Since December of 2007, I have been in Excelsior, where I have established a phenomenal client base.
I am passionate when it comes to skin care and truly care about every single person that walks through my door. Clients can see the passion, expertise, creativity, and overall genuine bed side manner when it comes to helping with any skin care condition that comes my way.
One of my biggest successes is helping and treating teen acne. Having one of my own, I see the challenges, confidence issues, and concerns teens have with the changes they go through in those trying years. I guide them on nutrition, a daily skin regimen, and see them weekly for treatments, and follows-ups.
A joy for me as an aesthetician is seeing someones confidence turn around, which means smiling again, head up and self esteem regained — there is no price tag on what that can do for the soul. I look forward to helping you with your journey to beautiful skin for life.
