About Me!

About myself & practice

When providing medical aesthetic consults to clients, I always say, “Know who is holding the pointy object!”

Here’s a little about me and my motivation.

You know that feeling you get when you look in the mirror and you love what you see? Maybe it’s a good hair day or a great outfit. You feel confident and happy, and that translates to how you present yourself to others, affecting your everyday interactions and relationships. Now add in seeing a fresh face – no tired eyes, no worried or angry expressions, no dull, saggy complexion – instead, you have a soft, sculpted youthfulness to your features. What an amazing effect!

After a thorough consultation and providing customized medical aesthetic treatments to rejuvenate and augment my clients’ best features, seeing them look back in the mirror and love what they see is what really motivates me. I started integrating medical aesthetics into my family medical practice in 2018 and now it’s all I do. I’ve been the Medical Director of Aesthetics at various clinics in Calgary and Cochrane including Britannia Dermedics, CaVa Bien Day Spa, Achieve Wellness Spa, and Fresco. I’ve been the Medical Director at Flirt Cosmetics Studio in Cochrane since 2020.

So, who’s holding the pointy object for you? That would be me, with 26 years of medical experience, an eye for the art of natural beauty and an understanding that each client requires a unique, customized treatment plan to meet their needs.

“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and, most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do” ~Pele

Education

I moved to Calgary from northern Alberta in the 90s and graduated with a Bachelor of Nursing degree from the University of Calgary. I started my career working at Alberta Children’s Hospital in Paediatric Intensive Care and continued there for 18 years. It was such a privilege to care for kids and families during such critical times!

I completed a Master of Nursing degree from the University of Toronto and began my Nurse Practitioner journey specializing in Paediatrics and then Family Medicine from Athabasca University. I have built medical aesthetics into my family medical practice since 2018, trained by a variety of local and international specialists. Constant education allows me to integrate the best new rejuvenation treatments into what I offer to every client.
