Kristen was selected to be a certified national trainer for Botox and injectable fillers based on her experience and appropriate use of the products.

Many of the individuals trained by Kristen are currently injecting in the North Florida and South Georgia region, including Panama City, Destin, Tallahassee, Gainesville, and Moultrie.

Kristen also is an internationally known speaker in the field of aesthetic injectables.
