MEET THE FACES BEHIND
MODERN AESTHETICS
Vera Bush, RN - Owner + Aesthetics Nurse
My name is Vera Bush, a nurse living in Nash County, NC. My love for Medical Arts is rooted in Emergency Medicine but through a fiery passion for meeting others in their raw, unfiltered form and serving their needs- destiny has led me to extend my skillset into the world of Aesthetics for the past 3 years, where I find I am still able to serve others, caring for their emotional and spiritual wellbeing by having a hand in boosting their confidence and bringing-attention-to/ enhancing the natural beauty that a person already possesses. My belief is that we exude true confidence from inside out by realizing our best, authentic self. We are worthy of loving the skin we’re in and all that is contained within it.
It is my absolute honor to be included in your self-care journey.
