Aberdeen Aesthetic Studio

Accredited 23rd December 2014

I have 25 years of nursing experience the last 9 years I have held senior positions – Team Leader at NHS 24, Nursing Home Manager, Manager of outpatient pre-operative assessment team and Senior Charge Nurse of a stroke rehabilitation unit for the past 5 years. In 2004-2006 I went back to university and successfully gained my Bachelor of Nursing Degree. In 2013 I returned to university and successfully gained my independent presciber’s qualification.
In 2010 I successfully studied beauty therapy at Arbroath College while working as the outpatient team manager. I have been to Harley Street in the past month to learn micro-pigmentation. I have also done numerous courses to enable me to do wrinkle reducing injections, dermal fillers, rejuvenating facial peels both glycolic and TCA peels, derma roller treatment.
I have recently resigned from my role as Senior Charge Nurse to concentrate on this new direction for my career. I feel that now I am older I am ready to face the challenge of being self-employed and working more flexible hours to hopefully achieve a much improved work – life balance in an area which has always fascinated me.
I have always been interested in make-up and making the best of yourself and therefore feel this new career pathway combines my nursing skills and allows me to participate in something I enjoy whilst getting the satisfaction of happy clients.
