What inspired you to become a nurse practitioner, and what do you love most about what you do?

My nursing career was inspired by international mission trips, where I witnessed the resilience of individuals during times of significant vulnerability. A particularly impactful experience for me involved caring for a critically ill patient in a resource-limited setting in Uganda, East Africa, which underscored the importance of empathy alongside technical skill in effective healing. This experience strengthened my dedication to providing holistic, patient-centered care. Over the past 20 years, I have developed a clinical approach that combines strong medical knowledge with genuine compassion. Whether managing acute emergencies or chronic conditions, I focus on treating each patient as a whole person, customizing interventions to address both their medical needs and personal circumstances.

What’s your favorite part of working in aesthetics/wellness/medicine?

I am passionate about the transformative potential of aesthetics and wellness. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is observing the significant positive changes that occur when individuals develop confidence in their own skin. Each day, I have the opportunity to collaborate with clients on a personal journey, integrating innovative treatments with holistic care to enhance both their appearance and their inner confidence. I believe that true beauty reflects how we feel internally. Working in this industry allows me to witness meaningful transformations driven by genuine self-care. It is about more than treatments, it is about inspiring self-discovery and supporting each individual’s journey toward greater well-being.

How would you describe your approach to patient care?

My approach to patient care is inherently holistic, blending physical treatments with emotional wellness to create personalized experiences. I treat the whole individual by tailoring each step to your unique needs, ensuring that every treatment aligns with your overall well-being. This nurturing, all-encompassing care is designed to empower you both inside and out.

What makes you excited to join the team at Renew MedSpa?

I am thrilled to join the Renew MedSpa team because I share a deep passion for helping people feel and look their very best. Being part of a team that values innovation and genuine care inspires me to continuously push the boundaries of aesthetics and wellness. Here, every day is an opportunity to contribute to life-changing transformations.

What’s your favorite treatment to perform — and why?

My favorite part of my work is the chance to educate and empower each client about their treatment options with clarity and compassion. Explaining the science behind our procedures and how they contribute to your overall wellness not only clarifies the process but also builds lasting trust. I firmly believe that informed patients are empowered patients, leading to truly transformative results.

What skincare product or treatment do you personally swear by? 

I truly believe in Tretinoin and retinol—an ingredient that helps refresh the skin, improve its texture, and smooth out small lines. Its proven results have made it a key part of my own skincare routine and something I confidently suggest to my clients. Learn more.

What advice would you give someone who’s new to medical aesthetics or feeling nervous about their first appointment?

If you’re new to medical aesthetics, embrace your first appointment as the start of an exciting journey toward enhanced well-being and renewed confidence. It’s normal to feel nervous, which is why we take every measure to ensure you understand each step of your treatment in clear, supportive language. Trust that your concerns are heard and that every decision is designed with your comfort in mind.

How do you help clients feel comfortable and confident during their visits?

I make every effort to create a welcoming environment where you feel secure and understood. By clearly explaining each treatment and listening closely to your personal goals, I build trust and help you feel fully informed. This patient-centered approach ensures that we work together to achieve the results you desire.

What can clients expect when they book with you for the first time?

When you book a session with me for the first time, you can expect honest conversations, careful attention, and help tailored just for you. I take the time to understand your needs, listen to your concerns, and create a plan that fits your goals. From the first consultation onward, you’ll experience a commitment to genuine, transformative care.

What’s your goal for every patient who walks out of your treatment room?

My goal is for each patient to leave feeling rejuvenated, confident, and empowered in every aspect of life. I strive to ensure that your treatment not only elevates your physical appearance but also enhances your emotional and social well-being. Ultimately, I want every visit to be a meaningful step forward on your journey toward a healthier, more joyful, and more vibrant version of yourself—because you deserve nothing less than to feel radiant from the inside out.
