From her own health journey, Kristyn developed a deep commitment to self-care, with a strong focus on skincare and understanding ingredients and formulations. She believes healthy skin truly starts from within and has seen firsthand how dramatically the skin can improve when gut health is supported and science-backed products are used consistently.

Kristyn loves tailoring at-home routines to meet each client’s individual lifestyle, goals, and stage of life. Her philosophy centers on consistency over quick fixes, combining thoughtful home care with regular professional treatments that evolve with the seasons and the skin’s changing needs.

She has been part of the team for over five years and has received extensive training and ongoing education in advanced skincare modalities, including results-driven treatments such as Medical Needling and Glycol Bio, as well as specialized massage techniques like Sculpt + Lift.

Kristyn’s goal is always for her clients to have healthy, resilient skin they feel confident in. She is especially passionate about educating clients on the long-term benefits of vitamin A and treating the skin gradually and respectfully through thoughtful, progressive treatment plans.

Outside of the treatment room, Kristyn enjoys Pilates and strength training, traveling, cooking, and spending time outdoors with her mini dachshund, Sunny. She graduated from the University of Maine with a degree in Communication Disorders.
