I now bring that unique blend of clinical expertise and heartfelt empathy to my medical aesthetic practice, creating a space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued.
After becoming a mother, my perspective on beauty became more personal, rooted in celebrating the natural confidence we all possess.
With over a decade of experience in high-risk obstetrics and anesthesia care, I have had the privilege of providing compassionate support during some of life's most vulnerable moments. This background instilled an unwavering commitment to patient safety, precision, and trust.
I never take for granted.
I consider it a profound honor to be trusted by my clients, and it's a privilege

The medical mind ensuring your safety
As a mom of three young kids, my days are a happy blur of school drop-offs and weekend adventures. You'll find me escaping to our cottage with my husband and family, chasing our French bulldog Dezzy, or hitting the slopes for some skiing in the winter. I also enjoy long distance running and recently completed my first half marathon. It’s all a beautiful balance, and I believe that finding and creating that balance in life and in aesthetics is what brings real confidence.
When I'm not with clients in the clinic, my life revolves around my family
