About Us
Stephanie
Hi, I’m Stephanie—a wife, mother, nurse practitioner, and founder of SOAR Wellness.
Originally from a small town in Indiana, I moved around quite a bit growing up—calling Texas, Washington, Georgia, and eventually New Mexico home since 1993. Each place shaped my journey, but it was in New Mexico that I truly found my purpose.
My journey into medicine wasn’t a straight line. I actually started in a different field altogether, but after years of feeling unfulfilled, I made the leap into medicine in 2008. By 2012 I had landed in the ER where I learned grit, grace under pressure, and how to manage disease, but not restore health.
In 2018, I discovered my true calling: combining aesthetics with wellness to help people feel as good as they look. I started small-treating patients from my home, then grew into a one-room suite inside a primary care office. Today, SOAR Wellness lives in a beautiful space inside the Shops at Los Ranchos, where our mission is clear: to help you heal from the inside out.
I’m so proud of the incredible team here at SOAR, and I’m grateful every day to do what I love: help people feel like the best version of themselves.
What set this journey in motion wasn’t just a love of skincare or injections-it was the moment I realized that many aesthetic patients were also struggling with fatigue, weight issues, bad skin, and chronic stress. That’s when I began blending aesthetics with functional medicine, creating a space where beauty and biology work hand-in-hand.
Whether you’re here for Botox or bioidentical hormones, exosomes or energy, microbiome health or metabolic repair, peptides or as you can see I can go on and on – I can’t wait to welcome you to SOAR.
Remember, your individuality is your superpower. You are beautifully, uniquely you-and you should be celebrated.

Hi, I’m Torie – a registered nurse, aesthetic injector, military wife, and someone who has always believed that confidence and beauty should still look like you!
My career began in the hospital, where I built my clinical foundation working in emergency medicine, the operating room and for a short time, the intensive care unit. Nursing has taken me through some incredibly challenging and rewarding experiences, including “deploying” to Texas during the COVID-19 pandemic. Those years taught me to stay calm under pressure, pay attention to the smallest details, and above all, never lose sight of the person behind the patient.
Eventually, I found my way into aesthetics and immediately knew I had found the part of nursing that felt most like me. I fell in love with the combination of medicine, anatomy, artistry, and human connection. I went on to own and operate my own medical aesthetics practice in Clovis, New Mexico, where I served as the sole injector and had the privilege of building relationships with patients who trusted me with their faces and their confidence.
Life as a military spouse took me overseas to Italy and, most recently, to Las Vegas. Through every move, aesthetics has remained the constant I keep coming back to. I’ve continued investing in advanced education and anatomy-based training because I believe great injecting is never something you simply “master” – there is always more to learn.
My approach to aesthetics is centered around creating intentional, balanced results. I never want someone to look at you and immediately know what you had done. I want them to notice that you look refreshed, confident, and still completely like yourself. Whether we’re softening movement with neurotoxin, restoring facial balance with filler, or creating a long-term treatment plan together, my goal is never “perfection” or changing the features that make you unique.
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.
Working at SOAR feels especially meaningful because New Mexico will always hold a special place in my story. I’m grateful to continue caring for patients here while bringing everything I’ve learned along the way back with me!

Hi, I’m Brittany—a wife, stepmom, dog mom, certified nurse practitioner, and aesthetic injector at SOAR Wellness.
My healthcare journey began in 2011, and I became a registered nurse in 2014. I spent several years working in the emergency room and adult intensive care unit, where I learned to remain calm under pressure, pay close attention to detail, and meet people with compassion during some of their most vulnerable moments. After becoming a nurse practitioner in 2022, I transitioned into primary care and later gastroenterology.
Although aesthetics is a newer chapter in my career, it feels like a natural extension of what I have always loved about medicine: building trust, understanding what matters to each patient, and helping people feel more confident in themselves. I am committed to continuing my education and developing my skills so I can provide thoughtful, safe, and individualized care.
My approach to aesthetics is intentionally conservative. I believe the best results should enhance your natural features. Whether we’re softening expression lines, restoring subtle volume, or simply helping you look a little more refreshed, every treatment plan begins with listening to your goals and making sure you feel informed and comfortable.
Outside of medicine, you’ll usually find me spending time with my husband and family, hiking, traveling, or reading.
Confidence is the most beautiful thing you can wear.
I’m so excited to be part of SOAR Wellness and can’t wait to meet you, celebrate what already makes you beautiful, and help you feel like the most confident version of yourself.

MSN, FNP-C
Hi, I’m Ashlee! I’m a wife, mom, nurse practitioner, and proud New Mexican, born and raised right here in the Land of Enchantment.
I grew up in the village of Corrales, a place that will always hold a special piece of my heart. Some of my favorite memories were made there, and now I have the incredible opportunity to introduce my daughter to many of the same places that meant so much to me growing up. There is something so special about experiencing those familiar places again through her eyes.
My journey in healthcare began in 2013 when I became a registered nurse. I spent much of my nursing career in the intensive care unit, where I gained an incredible appreciation for evidence-based medicine, the complexity of chronic disease, and the privilege of caring for people during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. In 2022, I became a nurse practitioner, which gave me the opportunity to expand my focus beyond treating illness and place a greater emphasis on prevention, wellness, and helping people feel their best.
Aesthetics was never where I imagined my career would take me—and maybe that’s part of what makes me appreciate it so much. I became a nurse because I genuinely love taking care of people. Today, I feel incredibly grateful to be able to do that in a completely different capacity and honored by every person who trusts me with their care.
When it comes to aesthetics, I’m definitely a less-is-more kind of girl. I love natural, thoughtful results that enhance rather than change. I never want you to walk away looking like someone else. I want you to look like you—refreshed, confident, and still beautifully yourself.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me
My goal is simple: to help you feel even more incredible in your own skin. Aesthetic treatments shouldn’t erase the features that make you unique. They should complement them, celebrate them, and help you feel like the very best version of yourself.
I can’t wait to meet you and be a part of your journey.
Danielle
Director of Operations
Hi, I’m Danielle—Director of Operations at SOAR Wellness, proud New Mexico native, wife, and mom to two wonderful boys.
Family has always been the foundation of my life. My husband serves in the military, and together we’ve built a life centered around supporting each other, spending time outdoors, traveling, and creating as many memories as possible with our kids and loved ones.
My journey with SOAR Wellness began in 2020, and what started as a job quickly became a passion. Being part of a practice that truly focuses on helping people feel their best—inside and out—was something that immediately resonated with me.
After joining the team, I pursued my esthetician license and had the opportunity to work directly with patients, providing esthetic services and helping them feel more confident in their skin. That experience gave me a deeper appreciation for the impact thoughtful, patient-centered care can have on someone’s confidence and overall well-being.
Over time, my role continued to evolve, eventually leading me into operations and leadership. Today, as Director of Operations, I work closely with our team to support the day-to-day function of the clinic, help our systems run smoothly, and ensure that every patient experience reflects the level of care and excellence that SOAR Wellness is known for.
– Danielle –
One of the most rewarding parts of my role is watching our practice grow while supporting the incredible team behind it. I truly believe that when a team feels supported and inspired, it creates the best possible experience for our patients.
I’m grateful to be part of SOAR Wellness and excited to continue helping our practice grow while serving the community that means so much to me.
Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself.
At SOAR Wellness, we don’t just treat symptoms;
we transform lives.
Nicole
Client Experience Coordinator
Hello! I’m Nicole – SOAR Wellness’s client experience coordinator and a proud esthetician with a deep passion for people, purpose, and personal growth.
With over 30 years of experience spanning leadership, law enforcement, and wellness, I’ve had a truly dynamic career. I’m also a proud mom to two amazing grown sons and a devoted grandmother—roles that bring immense joy and purpose to my life.
Originally from a small town in Indiana, my path has taken me across the country—from Texas and Mississippi to Washington, Hawaii, Illinois, and now, the beautiful landscapes of New Mexico, where I happily settled in 2023. You could say I have a bit of a wanderer’s spirit, always seeking connection, adventure, and growth.
My professional journey began in public service. After earning my Associate’s Degree in Political Science, I entered the field of law enforcement. I proudly served the State of Washington, the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons—eventually rising through the ranks to supervise high-performance teams. Those years instilled in me a deep commitment to leadership, accountability, and operational excellence.
What drives me every day is creating an environment where both our staff and patients can thrive.
Later in life, my long-standing interest in beauty and wellness inspired me to pursue my esthetician license. After retiring from federal service, I followed that passion to SOAR Wellness—first as an esthetician, and now helping clients navigate their wellness journey. This role has allowed me to combine my strengths in team leadership and patient-centered care, and I’m honored to help guide our practice with heart and vision.
I’m passionate about building strong teams, supporting meaningful work, and helping others feel empowered, seen, and supported.
