About  The Founder

At Nail & Aesthetics Institute,

I blend world-class technical skill with clinical integrity to empower the next generation of industry specialists.

Formerly Elite Aesthetics by Laura, my evolution from practitioner to educator is built on a foundation of multi-award-winning expertise. Recognized as a Top 10 International Aesthetics Practitioner & Educator (2024/25) and 2nd Place International Nail Technician of the Year (2024), my teaching standards are rooted in dermal science and high-level ethics.

Having mentored students across Ireland and led advanced workshops in leading beauty schools, my mission is to elevate the industry standard. I provide premium, medical-grade education and refined techniques that move beyond the "fluff" of traditional treatments. My focus is on health, safety, and delivering the real, transformative results that turn students into sought-after specialists.
