How I Got Into Aesthetics
I began receiving treatments in my mid-20s and quickly developed a passion for anti-aging medicine. In 2014, while still working as a Family Practice Nurse Practitioner, I entered the aesthetics field. By 2016, I transitioned into aesthetics full time and opened my own practice.

I feel incredibly blessed to have found my passion—helping people feel like and discover their best selves, inside and out. At Vibrant Med, I get to blend science and art in an ever-evolving field where every person becomes my canvas.
The relationships I build with my clients mean everything. I get to walk through life with them—celebrating significant events, supporting them through everyday moments, and sharing both laughter and tears along the way.
CO2 Laser treatments are my favorite because they truly transform the skin, improving texture, tone, and tightness. They’re like a real-life filter.

Traveling is my absolute favorite. I love exploring new places and immersing myself in different cultures. There’s something magical about experiencing something for the first time. I also enjoy reading, spending time with my family, and hanging out with my Goldendoodles.
