The Ellena Team

Your Wellness, Our Passion. Expert Care, Personalized for You!

With over a decade of experience in healthcare, I received my Master’s degree in Nursing from Marquette University in 2016 and completed my Nurse Practitioner training through St. Louis University. In addition to Internal Medicine and Family Practice, I have always had a strong interest in skin, aging, and the multifaceted beauty industry. I have been fortunate to work alongside and learn from many reputable providers with extensive education in various approaches and modalities to facial balancing and multi-treatment combinations, all while maintaining a natural approach.
Beyond medical aesthetics, I have a passion for both men’s and women’s health, with a special focus on hormone management and supporting overall wellness. I also enjoy offering elective prenatal ultrasounds, giving expectant families a unique way to connect with their growing baby.
In addition to my clinical practice, I serve as a GAIN Trainer for Galderma and a trainer for Revanesse, where I am able to share my knowledge and support the growth and development of fellow injectors, while continuing to grow in an ever-changing, evolving field.

I went to Michigan State University and graduated with an Elementry Education Degree. After teaching for 4 years, I became a stay-at-home mother. During that time I created and patented a stain remover for clothes. Although this didn't go quite as planned, I decided on a new career at 40 to enter Aesthetics. I suffered from Melasma after my pregnancy and while trying to find ways to overcome this, It reminded me of my passion for getting rid of stains. Treating skin is similar to a science experiment. Everyone has different skin with unique needs. I love helping my patients match the right treatment and skincare regimen that is perfect for them and seeing the joy that it brings reminds me of why I love what I do. My favorite treatment is SkinPen with Sculptra. It's my go-to Anti-Aging. In my free time, I enjoy spending moments with my adult children, snuggling my sheepadoodle Pepper and traveling the world with my boyfriend.
