Doctor of Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a dream job for me because of the “miracles” I see walk in and out of the office every day. Every child deserves a bright beginning and our office is designed to provide just that!
I’ve known that I wanted to work in health care and help people since I was young, but I had no idea how – or where. I also grew up playing any and every sport you can think of, so the thought of finding a way to work with the players from one of my favorite teams (Go Badgers, Bucks, Lions & White Sox!) seemed like a dream come true.
Just as it was time to really start thinking about what I wanted to do when “I grew up”, I was introduced to chiropractic as a high school athlete with a bad back. I am so grateful for that introduction, the next eight years of schooling that followed, and all that I have learned since graduating from chiropractic school in 2017 via PX Docs and the ICPA. This continued learning, combined with my clinical experiences, has all allowed me to find my true calling and become a specialized and neuro-focused Pediatric Chiropractor. I am a certified Pediatric and Family Chiropractor through The Pediatric Experience + Life University and have also completed the ICPA Pediatric Certification Program and received Certification by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (CACCP). I am Webster Certified and love working with pregnant moms as well.
Being around kids is really all I know anyway, because I have an older set of siblings and became an uncle at the age of 6. I now have 14 nieces and nephews and being around littles has always come naturally to me. To work with kids makes it not feel like “work” at all!
I am a proud husband to my wife Sam, dad to our daughter Ruby, and dog dad of 2. Sam and I met at UW-Madison, moved out west to LA where I attended chiropractic school, and then moved back “home” to Chicago after graduating to be closer to our families and friends. We now happily call the North Shore our forever home!
Bright Beginnings is built to be the source of hope, answers, and help you’ve been searching for. We are here to take on the toughest of neurological cases, as well as healthy, vibrant wellness families. Inside the office every day, you’ll find children who: no longer have seizures or sensory challenges, have their focus improved and behavior challenges calmed, regulate their emotions and anxiety, improve their gut and immune health, get back on track developmentally, and so much more!
We also care for moms, dads, and adults in the same neurologically-focused, life transforming way – restoring their sleep, energy, health, happiness, and joy just the same!
We can’t wait to welcome you and your family into the office and move towards health, happiness, and bright beginnings!

Care Advocate
Hi there! I’m Vanessa, and I am so incredibly grateful to connect with you.
I’ve been surrounded by kids for as long as I can remember—working as a nanny, a preschool teacher, and eventually a Special Education Teacher. Children, along with health and wellness, have always been my world! That passion eventually led me to become a 200-hour certified yoga instructor.
Becoming certified was the moment two of my worlds collided in the best way possible: my special education background beautifully met a holistic mindset. When I became a mom, my focus shifted even deeper toward movement, nervous system regulation, and cooking nutritious meals.
Our family’s personal journey with Bright Beginnings started when I attended a Perfect Storm Workshop. While I had been to other chiropractors before, I had never experienced a nervous system-focused approach. That night, everything clicked! First our kids got adjusted, then myself, and soon after, my husband joined in.
When I’m not at the office, our family loves staying active. You can usually find us outdoors biking, kayaking, fishing, and horseback riding! On rainy or snowy days, we love cozying up inside for a family board game night!
My biggest hope for the families at Bright Beginnings is to be a steady, supportive resource on your journey to improved health and wellness. Raising kids can be chaotic, but it never has to feel lonely—it truly takes a village! Please feel free to ask me anything. I’ve pretty much seen it all, and I am so confident that nervous system-focused chiropractic care will beautifully support your kiddo in more ways than you can even imagine.

Specializing In
At Bright Beginnings Chiropractic, we understand that children are naturally resilient, but sometimes birth stressors can impact their developing nervous system, leading to signs of struggle like colic, constipation, feeding difficulties, and more. These early signs are often overlooked in traditional medicine, causing long-term health challenges if left untreated. Without the right support, these issues can potentially result in conditions like Autism, ADHD, asthma, and chronic immune problems. Give your child the best start possible by addressing these early indicators with our specialized care.
Prenatal chiropractic care at Bright Beginnings Chiropractic offers expecting moms relief from physical, chemical, and emotional stressors during pregnancy. Our adjustments help reduce tension, increase energy, promote proper baby positioning, and aid in adapting to life changes. Many moms experience improvements in common pregnancy discomforts like nausea, heartburn, insomnia, fatigue, and low back pain through our specialized care.
Restore balance and vitality to your family with Bright Beginnings Chiropractic. From rejuvenating tired bodies to alleviating stress and tension, we are dedicated to supporting your holistic health needs. Say goodbye to common parenting challenges and embrace a life of wellness and ease.
