KERRY’S STORY

From battling eczema to building StackedSkincare.

Since childhood, I battled severe eczema, a relentless struggle that began when I was just five years old. By eight, it had spread to my eyes and lips, leaving me feeling isolated and insecure.

While many children grow out of eczema, mine only worsened. I endured monthly steroid shots, sleepless nights with ice packs, and even medication to stop the scratching.

In 2008, my skin struggles reached a breaking point. I woke with excruciating elbow pain that turned out to be a severe MRSA infection. I spent five days in the hospital, three months unable to use my left arm, and later two months unable to walk because the infection had spread to my leg.

These experiences forced me to confront my health head-on. Determined to find solutions, I began experimenting in my own kitchen — searching for answers I couldn’t find anywhere else.

At 40, I left my career in tech at Microsoft and Google’s DoubleClick to pursue a license in esthetics. During my training, I invested in advanced technologies, experimented with active ingredients, and developed a unique philosophy: layering treatments, tools, and serums to transform skin health over time.

What started as my personal fight to heal my skin became the foundation for StackedSkincare.

I built this company from the ground up, self-funded and driven by passion, creativity, and problem-solving. My mission is simple: to empower others to achieve their best skin through professional-grade products and at-home rituals that actually work.
