Larissa Murtaugh, Cosmetic Injector, LPN, Master Aesthetician
Hi, I am a cosmetic nurse injector and a Master Aesthetician here at Contour Medical Aesthetics. I have 25 years nursing experience with a career start in pediatrics 1999. I entered the aesthetic industry in 2008 as a cosmetic surgical nurse in the operating room. Additionally, I have seven years experience as a Cosmetic Injector and Master Aesthetician. The dual degree is simply a dream come true!
I am proficient with cosmetic, injectables such as Botox and Dysport, Dermal Filler, Bio Stimulatory Injectables, Medical Grade Skin Care and product knowledge, Platelet Rich Plasma and Laser Therapy. I take pride in my ethical responsibility as a clinician to identify healthy candidates for elective, cosmetic procedures, and the development of a personalized ongoing care plan. My top priority is ensuring patients are well informed and confident in the level of safely and compassionate care I provide.
I am a country girl at heart, a mother to the world’s best son and 2 dogs. When I’m not in the office you can find me spending time with my family, studying anatomy, gardening, running, paddleboarding, hiking in the beautiful Pacific Northwest or rooting on the Seahawks and Mariners. I have a strong admiration for Arizona and Montana, and you will find me traveling frequently back-and-forth between the two states. I’m a strong advocate for building community and collaboration within the aesthetic medicine field amongst other providers.
My anti-aging advice is to age with grace, stay active, smile in the face of adversity, lead with love and subscribe to the theory, “You Are Worth It,”-because you are!
Dr. Tanya Jackins, DNP, FNP-BC
Fourteen years ago, my son with special needs inspired me to pursue a career in nursing. I completed my BSN at UW after completing my ADN at Centralia Community College. Since then, I have worked in a variety of settings, including primary care, cardiac immediate care, critical care, neonatal intensive care, and oncology. I made the decision to return to school for my doctorate in nursing after the passing of my son Chase. I received my doctorate in nursing with a Family Practice concentration from Baylor University this May. I am excited to pay it forward by providing compassionate, evidence-based care. In my free time I love traveling with my boyfriend, watching the 49-ers and spending time with my grandchildren.

Ashley Boeder, Patient Coordinator, Nurse Tech
Hi, I’m Ashley! my roles here are to work at the front desk as a receptionist but because I have my nurse tech certification that also allows me to have a wider scope of tasks here in the office. I’m currently in nursing school and will be graduating in march of 2025. I decided to pursue nursing because of the connections I can build with the patients and the ability it gives me to help people when they can’t themselves. Outside of school and work, I enjoy just about anything outside. I love being active, going to the gym, running, walking, wake surfing, snowboarding, fishing, camping, and much more. We’re excited to have you here!
