Alleina’s nursing journey defies convention. Starting as a Licensed Practical Nurse in community health—never stepping foot in a hospital or nursing home—she built her career on connection rather than clinical walls. While working directly with patients in their communities, Alleina pursued her BSN, eventually landing a corporate nursing role where her warmth transcended professional boundaries. Patients didn’t just trust her with their health—they welcomed her into their lives, often inviting her to share in personal moments because she was more than a corporate nurse to them, she was family. 

Everything shifted after Alleina’s own cosmetic surgery experience. Navigating post-operative recovery opened her eyes to a glaring gap in the beauty industry: patients undergoing transformative procedures often lacked proper post-surgical nursing care. Recognizing an opportunity to merge her clinical expertise with an underserved need, Alleina founded Etherial Touch Body Studio, specializing in surgery consultations, post-operative care, and lymphatic drainage services for both surgical and non-surgical body contouring patients.

Under the mentorship of Dr. Kalsow, Alleina deepened her specialized knowledge, positioning herself as a trusted guide for patients choosing cosmetic enhancement. Her registered nurse background brings medical precision to an industry that desperately needs it, while her signature compassion ensures every client feels seen, safe, and supported through their transformation journey.

Join us for an immersive conversation about carving your own lane in nursing, turning personal experience into professional purpose, and building a thriving business at the intersection of healthcare and beauty.
