March 6, 2026

LOS ANGELES — March 6, 2026 — In celebration of International Women’s Day, Varsity Healthcare Partners (“VHP” or the “Firm”) proudly recognizes Amy Shecter, CEO of United Aesthetics Alliance (“UAA”), a VHP portfolio company, for her more than two decades of senior leadership and unwavering commitment to advancing women in business.

This week, Amy marked the occasion by appearing on the NASDAQ stage alongside The DealmakeHers, a community of impactful female founders, CEOs, and investors in the retail and consumer spaces. As part of the celebration, Amy and fellow members of The DealmakeHers were also featured on the NASDAQ Times Square Jumbotron in recognition of International Women’s Day.

Over the past two decades, Amy has been a champion for women—building high-performing teams, mentoring emerging leaders, and fostering inclusive workplace cultures that support growth and advancement for everyone. Under her leadership at UAA, the organization has prioritized talent development, client experience, operational excellence, and strategic growth, while cultivating opportunities for women at every level of the business. With a workforce that is predominantly female across both clinical and operational teams, UAA’s commitment to developing and advancing women leaders is a defining part of its culture and a key driver of its long-term success.

“Standing alongside The DealmakeHers at NASDAQ in honor of International Women’s Day was both a privilege and a reminder of how far we’ve come—and the opportunities that still lie ahead,” said Amy. “Throughout my career, I’ve believed that when women are given the opportunity, support, and sponsorship to lead, they don’t just succeed—they elevate entire organizations. I’m proud to be part of a community that is actively creating pathways for the next generation of women leaders.”

“Amy exemplifies the kind of leader we are proud to support and champion,” said David Alpern, Managing Partner of Varsity Healthcare Partners. “Her ability to develop talent while building high-performing, results-driven teams leaves a meaningful and lasting mark on every organization she leads.”

VHP has long demonstrated its commitment to advancing women in leadership throughout its portfolio. In the last 12 months alone, the Firm has appointed four women to CEO roles within its portfolio companies—an achievement that reflects the Firm’s dedication to identifying, backing, and empowering exceptional female executives.

Beyond CEO appointments, VHP actively promotes leadership development and board participation for women across its network. Recognizing that meaningful change requires intentional action, the Firm launched a dedicated Women’s Initiative aimed at strengthening leadership capabilities and expanding opportunities for women within the VHP platform. VHP plans to expand these efforts throughout the year as it continues to advance opportunities for women across the platform. As International Women’s Day highlights the achievements of women worldwide, Varsity Healthcare Partners reaffirms its commitment to supporting women across its portfolio and throughout the broader healthcare ecosystem.
