As the daughter of Dr. O’Rourke, Catherine sees Essence not only as a workplace but also as a family business. She began learning the ropes at the front desk in high school and continued working during summers when she was home from college. Catherine greets each patient who walks through the door as if they were her own family, and indeed it won’t take her long to know your name.
Her creativity and design skills have translated into Essence Laser and Wellness’ marketing success through seasonal specials, regular emails, and exclusive promotions. She has also created a design brand for each of our unique annual Open Houses.
When Catherine is not at the office, she is at work at her own Graphic Design business, Blue Jaye Designs. She can create anything from a simple logo to a complete brand identity. She specializes in creating personalized portraits of pets, families, and even cars!
Catherine’s warm heart and volunteer work through Vision Health International have taken her to numerous eye projects in Latin America, as well as educational programs in China and Europe. But she also enjoys her time at home doing yoga, baking pies, running, watching baseball, and relaxing with her husband and rescue dog, Stella. She makes every excuse to come back to Colorado to visit her friends, family, and her family at Essence!
