Industry Experience

After completing my Diploma of Beauty Therapy at Elly Lukas College in 2008, I’ve spent the last 17 years immersed in the skin industry, continually advancing my skills and knowledge. I’ve been fortunate enough to work at Skin Brilliance for 5 years as a senior skin therapist & clinic manager.

Why I love my job

My journey to becoming a skin therapist began with my own personal struggles navigating acne as a teenager. That experience not only shaped my passion for skin health, but also the empathy I bring into every treatment.

I know firsthand how deeply skin concerns can affect confidence and the way we show up in the world, which is why I’m completely invested in every clients skin journey.

I love being part of an industry that is constantly evolving, where science, innovation and results-driven treatments give us the power to truly change lives by changing skin.

The health of your skin extends far beyond the surface, which is why I love getting to know the person behind the skin.

Your lifestyle, stress levels, hormones, health and habits, even how you feel about yourself — your skin is a reflection of it all, and I believe truly transformative results begin with understanding that story in full.

For me, the most rewarding outcomes come from true collaboration by building trusting relationships with my clients and working together toward a shared goal — whether that’s clearing acne, reducing pigmentation,

strengthening the skin or creating a more even, radiant complexion.

Helping my clients feel confident, comfortable and empowered in their own skin is at the heart of everything I do.

Guiding someone through a personalised skin journey, watching their skin transform and seeing their confidence return is the part that never gets old and the reason I truly love what I do.

 

Favourite treatment

Skin Needling, also known as collagen induction therapy or micro-needling, is one of the most effective, science-backed treatments for true skin rejuvenation and it’s easily one of my favourite treatments to perform.

I love it because it’s incredibly versatile, minimally invasive, and delivers impressive results with relatively low downtime.

The magic lies in its ability to stimulate your skin’s natural healing response, encouraging it to repair, rebuild and strengthen itself from within.

This treatment effectively addresses multiple concerns at once, including fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, sun damage, acne scaring, enlarged pores and redness, making it a powerful all-rounder for overall skin health and refinement.

Using a specialised device with ultra-fine needles, we create thousands of controlled micro-injuries in the skin.

These tiny micro-injuries trigger a wound healing response which in turn activates fibroblast cells to begin producing fresh new collagen & elastin-the essential proteins responsible for firmness, structure and elasticity.

The benefits don’t stop there, Skin needling also promotes the release of growth factors, accelerates cell turnover, and enhances the absorption of active ingredients through the temporary micro-channels created during treatment.

The result? Stronger, smoother, brighter and more resilient skin.

 

Favourite product

Australia has some of the highest UV radiation levels in the world, so SPF isn’t optional, it’s essential.

It’s estimated that up to 90% of visible skin ageing is caused by sun exposure, which is why investing in a high-performance SPF is your first and best defence in protecting the skin against premature ageing, pigmentation, skin cancers and long-term skin concerns.

My holy grail? Dermaceutic K-Ceutic SPF 50, a sophisticated, high-performance sunscreen that truly earns its place in your skin routine.

This advanced formula offers a powerful 3-in-1 action, protecting, repairing and nourishing the skin while delivering broad-spectrum protection against both UVA (ageing) and UVB (burning) rays.

Infused with skin-loving ingredients, K-Ceutic helps to soothe inflammation, support skin repair, strengthen the skin barrier and protect against environmental stressors and free radical damage.

It’s lightweight, non-greasy and leaves no white cast. It leaves the skin with a luminous glow, blurs imperfections and wears beautifully on bare skin, under make-up or post-procedure.
