Mary received her BSN, RN from Rush University College of Nursing and went directly to work on a Medical Surgical Nursing floor at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. During her first 6 months at NMH, Mary was given responsibilities usually reserved for senior staff; acting as Charge RN and preceptor for new graduates. While she enjoyed providing a high caliber of care to her patients, and the experience of hospital nursing; something was missing. When presented with an opportunity to apply her nursing skills and affinity for aesthetics at a medical spa, Mary jumped at the chance while continuing to work at Northwestern.
Several months after working at the medical spa, Mary was promoted to Nurse manager of 5 med-spa locations. It was at that time she chose to devote all of her time to cosmetic medicine. Mary has extensive training and experience with a wide array of cosmetic injectables (Botox, Dysport, Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm, etc.). As RN manager she honed her skills by attending advanced training classes and continuing education seminars. She also worked with new hire RNs training them on injection techniques and how to approach the work not only as a medical procedure, but an art as well.
Mary has found her niche with cosmetic medicine and truly enjoys her work. She gets no greater satisfaction that seeing the happiness she brings to clients through her work!
