She moved to Tucson from Columbus in 2016 where she began her career in medical aesthetics because of her love for skincare, beauty, and attention to detail. Like any good entrepreneur, Lisa took the plunge to branch out and started her own business in 2020. Lisa is committed to enriching her client's natural and unique appearance and helping them age gracefully and feel more confident. Being a perfectionist, she really takes the time to listen to each individual client to help them achieve the best possible outcome by taking a conservative approach, recognizing that one treatment does not fit all. In her free time, she enjoys photography, hiking, biking, watching movies and spending time with her siamese cat.
