Amy is one of Sydneys most renowned IVF advocates after battling with Endometriosis for 2 decades before a long 5 year IVF battle, including 6 stimulated cycles and 8 transfers, an ectopic pregnancy and miscarriage. At aged 38 back in 2019, Amy became a mum to her double rainbow baby Alinta Jean.
It wasn’t always fertility talk with Amy; she was first known for her highly successful beauty business in Southern Sydney’s, Sutherland Shire and has a long list of celebrity clients for her sought after spray tans. Amy’s beauty business has always been her passion to make women feel beautiful inside and out and not feel guilty for looking after themselves. Amy’s passion for self care and squashing the claim that ‘beauty = vanity’, has been what drove her to run her successful business for the past 2 decades and try to change peoples mindsets around looking after themselves.
