In November 2009, my journey in the spa industry began at Giselle’s Esthetics School in Winnipeg, MB. I discovered my passion for skincare treatments. I was honoured to win a gold medal during competition. I also won a bronze medal in the makeup competition. Graduating on the honour roll with 96%. After graduation, I spent the next two years completing my apprenticeship and received my Journeyperson License.
In September 2013, Charisma Day Spa came to life located at 110 Rankin Road in the historic post office building in Churchbridge, SK. Shortly after opening, I became an award-winning Sales Representative & Educator - Saskatchewan with the award-winning Eminence Organic Skin Care. As the company grew within the province, my time with the company required more of my attention and dedication.
In 2018, Charisma Day Spa closed its doors to the public to focus more time building the Eminence brand and I continued offering private in-home sessions, on a very part-time basis, to keep my hands in the esthetics trade.
In 2020, during the pandemic, Charisma 2.0 was created, and I continued offering private service sessions. I took the opportunity to expand my education bringing forth new services to offer you. I also freshened up on my existing education to keep up with the rapid evolution of the spa industry. To this day, I continue to research new skillsets and products.
In 2022, after having 2 other surgeries, I was diagnosed with 2 rare forms of fast-growing Breast Cancer requiring urgent surgery and treatments. Currently, I am in remission and am feeling great! This experience changed my entire outlook on life and shook my world. I decided it was time for me to slow down and look after myself more. This decision pivoted me back into the spa room on a full-time basis and making the difficult decision to resign from my role with Eminence. Thankfully, I was given the opportunity to still be involved with Eminence and was offered to become a Spa Partner. Eminence is my life, it’s all I’ve known my entire esthetics career. I live and breathe it and I am so grateful to still be here doing what I love to do the most…to help you and commit to giving you the best experience and introduce you to services and products the spa industry has to offer.
I love this space my dad and I passionately created. With pieces of Charisma 1.0 and adding new visions to create a space that I love coming to work to every day. Its clean, clinical feel makes me feel so proud on how far I’ve come with my education in the spa industry and in life.
It’s been so wonderful reconnecting with past clients and meeting so many new ones. I look forward to providing you 5-star exceptional service for years to come. Thank you for your continued support of my small business and helping my visions become a reality. Look forward to pampering you real soon!
