Brittney
Brittney Foss is an instructor at the Advanced Esthetics Institute (AEI) who is passionate about helping students build a strong foundation in skin science and clinical esthetics. She loves breaking down the “why” behind treatments. This allows the students to truly understand how the skin works, not just how to perform a service. Watching students connect the dots and grow into confident practitioners is one of the most rewarding parts of her work.
Brittney’s true aesthetic love language is advanced treatments. Brittney especially enjoys teaching laser and light-based technologies, where physics, biology, and skincare all come together. If there’s a deep dive into laser physics or skin physiology, she’s probably having a great day.
Outside of the treatment room and classroom, Brittney is a combat veteran who feels most at home outdoors. She loves spending time in the forest, staying active, and has recently developed a love-hate relationship with distance running and endurance training. Whether she’s teaching, running trails, or exploring the outdoors, Brittney is always drawn to things that challenge the mind and body.
