Hi! I’m Emma, the Practice Manager at Blush. I work closely with our amazing teams in both our Perrysburg and Columbus locations. I joined Blush in 2020 as a Patient Care Coordinator, later managed our social media, and now I’m grateful to be working behind the scenes in management—helping create the best experience for both our employees and our patients.
Blush truly feels like my second home, but when I’m not working, I love to travel, shop, try new restaurants, and spend time with my family. I can’t wait to support you on your skin journey!
