The Elevated Team
My name is Brooke East. I am a Registered Nurse and currently obtaining my Family Nurse Practitioner Degree from Purdue. My husband, Lucas and I have an almost 2 year old boy, named Jack as well as 2 Bernese mountain dogs and 2 black cats.
I am originally from Florida and made the bold decision to move to Chicago in 2011. I started my career in software sales, which is where I met my husband.
Driven by my desire to make a meaningful impact on people's lives, I decided to leave the corporate world behind and pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). This decision led me down an exciting path in the medical field, specifically in Cardio-thoracic surgery and emergency medicine at a renowned level 1 trauma center, The University of Chicago.
While I thrived in the fast-paced environment of the emergency room, it was a personal experience that truly ignited my passion. After receiving a life-changing botox treatment in 2018, I discovered my true love for Aesthetics. Eager to learn more, I obtained certification in aesthetic injectables at the prestigious Confidence Bar.
Driven by my commitment to providing the best and safest results for my clients, I dedicated myself to learning from the industry's top professionals. I poured my heart and soul into training programs and sought out the best in the field. Now, I am excited to announce that I have launched my own training program this year.
The culmination of my journey has led me to open my own MedSpa in North Center. This venture allows me to combine my expertise in nursing with my passion for aesthetics, offering a unique and personalized experience to my clients. If you follow me on Instagram, you'll get a glimpse into my love for this extraordinary field of medicine.
I am genuinely excited to meet new faces and help enhance your natural beauty. So, if you're ready to embark on a transformative journey, I hope to see your beautiful face at my MedSpa soon.

My name is Melanie Richardson, and I'm thrilled to join Elevated by East as a Nurse Practitioner. Originally from North Carolina, where I lived for 20 years, I also spent ten years growing up in Germany. This unique upbringing made me bilingual and sparked my love for travel. Having lived in Europe for a while, I've had the pleasure of visiting over 14 countries!
I began my nursing journey at Duke University and continued my education at Simmons University, where I became a Family Nurse Practitioner. Two years ago, I moved to Chicago to work as a travel nurse. During this time, I met my fiancé and decided to make Chicago my permanent home.
My passion for aesthetics and dermatology has been a lifelong journey, and I'm excited to finally pursue my dreams in this field. I am committed to continuous education to ensure I provide the safest and highest quality services to my patients. Currently, my favorite treatments are microneedling and lower face Botox, and I'm having so much fun learning and mastering these techniques.
