Owner and Founder

Owner | Founder | Licensed Master Aesthetician

Owner and Founder Kristin Joy VanGuilder studied with the San Francisco Ballet, the Boston Ballet and the Pacific Northwest Ballet while receiving full merit scholarships to the San Francisco Ballet and the Pacific Northwest Ballet. She was subsequently a principal dancer touring professionally with The American Ballet Ensemble.

Kristin's affinity for movement and dedication to beauty and perfection make her skin care treatments both indulgent and effective. In addition to dance, Kristin also studied biology and nursing before entering the world of aesthetics.

Her passion for skincare developed when she learned to heal her skin as an aesthetics student. She incorporates her science background into her skincare practice and has pursued training with skincare experts worldwide, including Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and London.

Kristin spent her time in NYC training with Biologique Recherche.
She specializes in non-surgical toning and tightening, concentrating on the neck and jowl area.

"With the right tools and products, everyone can have gorgeous skin," says Kristin.

Her commitment to researching the latest developments and products in skincare inspired her to form the concept for Ella Ora, a comprehensive skin care clinic equipped to unveil your most beautiful skin.
