Aimee started her journey in the medical aesthetics world in 2004 when she moved to Alberta from British Columbia. Driven by a passion for learning from the industry’s best, her enthusiasm for the medical portion of aesthetics led her to a position at an established cosmetic clinic in Calgary, Alberta. As a laser technician, medical aesthetician and consultant, her experience was strengthened while also learning from leaders when esthetics medicines popularity was emerging. 

Her curiosity for the “behind-the-scenes” in the medical spa was proven of interest and she had an opportunity to design treatments, quality assurance protocols, and sanitation standards while also leading a team of aestheticians.  

Missing the medical patient forward portion of her career and having an opportunity to start with the Preventous team, it was an easy decision to make. Since she joined the team in 2009, she has dedicated her time to ensuring everyone who enters Preventous feels comfortable, ensures information discussed is accurate and allows for a welcoming safe environment where trust and respect are essential.  

In her spare time, she thrives to stay healthy and enjoys walking daily, volunteering as a dog walker and spending her time with her daughter.
