Coming from a background in western medicine, I have an understanding of the clinical side of skin and body health. But over time, I found myself drawn to something deeper. I began to see the crossover between conventional care and a more natural, holistic approach, and honestly, it changed everything for me. Not just in how I care for skin, but in how I look at health as a whole. Our skin does not lie. It reflects what is happening inside our bodies, and once you understand that connection, you cannot unsee it. That is the understanding I am continuing to build on, and it is what I want to bring to every client who sits down with me.

I spent several years practicing nursing at a dermatology clinic and in women's health in Minnesota before making the move to Bozeman in 2023. I hold nursing licenses in both Minnesota and Montana. I am certified in microneedling with specialized experience in scalp, acne, and general microneedling techniques. I am currently deepening my practice through advanced coursework in holistic skincare for women. At SHÈN, I keep things running behind the scenes, managing operations and our front desk team, while also offering microneedling treatments to clients who are ready to invest in their skin. When I am not here, you will find me chasing around three little grand babies. I know what it means to need a moment. That is exactly what I want to give my clients: a reset. A little time that is just for you, to breathe, be still, and invest in yourself. In my spare time, which is rare, I make handmade beaded earrings when my creativity needs an outlet. I am proud to be able to offer those creations right here at SHÈN.

Music - I love a good beat. My playlist runs from oldies to current hits and everything worth moving to in between.

Food - Popcorn. Always popcorn. It is basically its own food group.

TV Show - True crime, real life stories, competition reality shows. If it actually happened or the stakes are real, I am watching it.
