Needless to say, Anne’s unique experience intensified her interest in the rapidly evolving field of medical esthetics and the treatments and products that wouldn’t just support her on her journey but also improve the overall health of her skin. She used this newfound passion to steer the focus of her career path and became a licensed esthetician in 2008.
