Meet Dora
Dora grew up in Salmon Arm, BC, and knew early on that she was drawn to the world of beauty and wellness. Right after high school, she enrolled in the Okanagan School of Esthetics in Kelowna to study makeup and esthetics. After graduating, she opened her first shop and began building a loyal clientele.
At 26, Dora set off to explore new cities and expand her experience, working at various resorts and spas along the way. Her first stop was Victoria, BC, where she had the privilege of working at the Delta Ocean Pointe Resort & Spa. A few years later, she moved to Calgary, AB, and continued honing her skills at the Hyatt Regency Hotel. Over the years, Dora has worked alongside incredible educators, opened several spa locations, and continued to evolve in her craft.
With over 30 years in the industry, Dora remains passionate about health and wellness. Her approach is holistic—she believes that true beauty starts from within and that stress is one of the biggest contributors to premature aging. Since the skin is our largest organ, she sees skin conditions like acne, rashes, or flare-ups as signals of internal imbalances—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual.
Dora’s ultimate goal is to create a sanctuary where clients can deeply relax, recharge, and reconnect with themselves. She believes that when the body is in balance, the skin naturally glows.
