With a deep passion for wellness and an impressive 20+ year career in healthcare, Valerie Prietz, APRN-CRNA, brings a distinctive blend of medical expertise and artistic touch to the world of aesthetics. As the founder and lead provider at Spindrift Aesthetics, Valerie is setting a new standard for personalized, medically driven aesthetic care.

Valerie began her journey in critical care, where her drive to make a meaningful impact led her to specialize in anesthesia. After becoming a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) in 2013, she spent years traveling and honing her medical skills before turning her attention toward aesthetic medicine—a field where she could blend her clinical precision with creative expression.

Her national-level training and solid foundation in critical care and anesthesia uniquely position her to deliver safe, effective, and customized aesthetic treatments. From injectables to wellness-focused services, Valerie approaches each patient’s goals with a careful balance of medical science and artistry.

In 2023, Valerie launched Spindrift Aesthetics, a boutique practice designed to provide a thoughtful, individualized experience in a serene, stylish setting. Every treatment at Spindrift is grounded in Valerie’s mission: to help clients feel confident, refreshed, and truly seen.

In her personal time, Valerie enjoys being outdoors hiking and camping with her husband and black lab, Sam. She’s passionate about giving back to others and has done multiple medical mission trips to Haiti. She is actively involved in organizations that help serve the needs of our veterans, as well as helps to fundraise for a local nonprofit that helps foster children in Pasco and Pinellas counties. 

Whether you're exploring aesthetic options for the first time or seeking a trusted provider for ongoing care, Spindrift Aesthetics is a place where your wellness and beauty goals are met with skill, care, and integrity.
