She began her nursing career at an outpatient GI clinic where she learned to perfect her IV skills. Brittany later transitioned to the Emergency Department where she sharpened her ability to care for and assess patients with critical and complex conditions; this knowledge brought her to the Cardiac Cath Lab where she currently works full time.
While Brittany enjoys the challenges that critical care patients bring, her passion for skin care and aesthetic nursing grew while she was attending nursing school. This made the decision to pursue a deeper understanding of skin health easy. In 2022 Brittany began working to expand her aesthetic knowledge base while shadowing alongside the incredible aestheticians and injectors. She has since obtained her Senior Laser Practitioner License and Certification of training in Botox and filler.
Brittany currently maintains BLS, ACLS, and TNCC certifications.
