Vision
Hunter Consulting was started on the premise of providing credible advice and recommendations about their business that was based off understanding their current business state.
I wanted to combine my vast experience and learnings from the medical aesthetic industry with my extensive knowledge and background in financial analysis and business development. I just felt like there was a lot of people telling business owners what they should or should not be doing without really having the expertise or knowledge base to be able to deliver that kind of advice. It scared me to think of how it might significantly impact their business

How it Started:
Jessica began her career in Medical Aesthetics in 2018 when she was recruited by Allergan Aesthetics to work as a business consultant, helping their largest clients with creating efficient and profitable businesses. After 5 years, she decided it was time to start a new venture on her own where she could provide authentic, unbiased consulting based on years of specific industry experience and apply her extensive financial knowledge to support her clients long term visions and aspirations.
Prior to entering the medical aesthetic industry, Jessica’s completed a Bachelor of Kinesiology as well as a Master of Business Administration specializing in entrepreneurship which allowed her to start her career working in strategic planning, marketing planning & sales execution among some of the most recognized brands in health care including 3M and Stryker.
How it’s Going:
Jessica’s vast industry experience has included supporting, consulting, and teaching over 75+ medical aesthetic clinics in a variety of locations across Canada and the United States. She has had the privilege to work with everyone from those who are just getting started and opening their own clinic, to clients who have multiple locations generating over $10 million in sales. Her understanding of how to create and establish profitable treatments, staff and operational systems has allowed her to help her clients increase their profit margins and revenue capabilities.
Jessica in-depth industry knowledge and partnerships has made her a sough after resources when wanting to create operational efficiencies, increase patient acquisition and develop key retention structures such as membership and loyalty programs.
What’s Her WHY:
Growing up, I watched my mom raise three kids, trying to establish her own career without the luxury of post secondary education or time to waste learning the ins and outs at her own pace. It instilled a work ethic in myself as well as my siblings that made us want to make sure we were always in control of our own future.” Jess describes. “I truly love being an entrepreneur, taking charge of my future and want to empowered others so that they can also achieve their own aspirations, staring with understanding the fundamentals of how their business operates.
My clients are among some of the smartest and hard-working humans that I have ever met but when it comes to understanding their practice as a business, that is where they need guidance and support. I really want to be able to empower & equip them with everything they need to be able to achieve their own future goals and aspirations and that usually means staring with understanding the fundamentals of how they business operates.
When Jessica isn’t speaking at conferences, working along side her clients in their clinics or hiding out in her office on zoom calls all day, you will find her with her two-favourite people on the planet, her boys Brock and Brody. Jessica and her husband love to combine their two obsessions, family, and athletics, by taking the kids skiing, biking, hiking, or fishing whenever they have a chance.
