Spa at the Lake

Our Staff

Alison Robbins

Front Desk Coordinator

I have worked at Spa at the Lake since 2009 and I love my spa family.  I grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia and attended Pennsylvania State University where I studied for my B.S. In Criminal Law.  My husband and I moved to Austin in 2008 and we have really grown to love the city and the outdoors.  In my spare time, I enjoy reading, hanging out with my two Corgi’s, watching movies and playing pool.

I have traveled to numerous international Dermalogica conferences to further my knowledge about skincare. Before joining the spa, I worked for 12 years at Halina Andre developing European skincare products. I have 2 daughters and enjoy reading, riding bicycles and cooking.

Ashley Walker

Hair

I found my home at Spa at the Lake in 2009. I have since had three wonderful children and therefore, have a bit more of a limited schedule. However, I love my job and my clients, so I make the most of the time I can devote to the spa. I specialize in custom hair color and color correction, often working with the full spectrum of blondes from soft and natural to bold and glamorous.

Bailey Potter

Massage

I graduated from the Institute for Massage Education in 2019, and since then have furthered my expertise in anatomy and movement by earning my NASM Personal Training certification.

I’ve been trained in Hot Stone, cupping, and lymphatic drainage. I also have experience working with prenatal clients, athletes, and worked at a cancer center.

I’m passionate about movement, which is why I love blending relaxing and therapeutic techniques with stretching and active engagement techniques—creating a truly personal experience for my clients.

My goal is to listen to your needs and provide the best session possible.

My fascination with the beauty and health of others has led me to the skin care industry. Since selling Chanel skin care products 20 years ago, my passion has led me to become an esthetician, furthering my knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of skin. I pride myself in staying up to date on the most effective way of correcting and slowing down the aging process of one’s skin. I love getting to know my clients and helping them achieve their long term skin care goals. Looking good is feeling good!
