Tara was born and raised in Pontiac, until recently moving to Fairbury. She graduated from Pontiac High School in 2002 and has worked at OSF and Evenglow since graduation. Tara has two young children with her life partner Shawn, a daughter, Attlee and a son, Huxley. They are her greatest joys!
Chiropractic has become more of a lifestyle for Tara and her family. She states that “Chiropractic has worked wonders in my life. It has kept me healthy and active, it helped tremendously during both of my pregnancies, and it has kept my children healthier than most. They never suffered from those common baby issues like colic or acid reflux. Since they have been adjusted since birth, they just seem much healthier. Because of chiropractic, I have learned so much about supplements and other natural remedies with oils that myself and children rarely use OTC or prescription drugs. I love the natural lifestyle that chiropractic has introduced to me!”
Tara is ecstatic with her position at Livingston County Chiropractic. "It is a joy to come to work every day and to be excited about your job. I also love getting the chance to meet new people every day and serve the people of my community." She is passionate to teach others what she has experienced with chiropractic and the miracles that we see every day in our practice.
