Our Story

“What we do can’t be copied, because it is simply who we are."

After more than a decade as the number-one-rated 4D ultrasound center in the Twin Cities and surrounding areas, we’ve come to understand what truly sets us apart. It’s not just our state-of-the-art technology, our training, or even our beautiful new facility — though we’re incredibly proud of all those things.
 
At the heart of it, it’s our people.
 

Meet the Team

From Jon, Owner & Lead Sonographer
 
At Enlightened 4D Imaging, we’re not just a business — we’re a family. And when you walk through our doors, we want you to feel like part of it.
I know from experience that partners are often left out during medical scans and doctor visits. That’s why we make it a priority here to include everyone on this journey. Our goal is to create a space that feels warm, inclusive, and truly centered around the unique story of each family.
 
I’m honored to introduce you to the incredible team that helps bring that vision to life — including my own family, who stands right beside me in this work.
 
Jon
Owner & Lead Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS)
 
I’m a dad of four and a bonus dad of two. We say “bonus” because “step” just doesn’t feel right in our family — it sounds cold, and family to us is all about love and connection, not labels. My own experiences — the joys, the challenges, and everything in between — have shaped how I approach every scan. I know how powerful these moments are, and how important it is for every loved one to feel seen and included. Outside of the ultrasound room, I’m a musician and songwriter, and I bring that same creativity and emotion into every session.
 
My goal is to create an experience that’s not just clinical, but truly meaningful — something you’ll remember for a lifetime.
 
Stefanie
Office Manager, Front Desk Lead & Licensed Phlebotomist
 
Stefanie is not only the heart of our front office — she’s also my wife and the soul of our team. As a mom herself, she brings that same nurturing care to every family we serve.
She’s the first smile you’ll see when you walk in, the calming voice on the phone, and the one making sure everything behind the scenes runs smoothly. Her warmth, organization, and genuine care for every family set the tone for the entire experience.
 
Together, we’ve built Enlightened 4D Imaging to reflect the kind of space we’d want for our own loved ones.
 
Taylor
Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS)
 
Taylor brings a beautiful balance of technical skill and deep empathy to every session. As a mom of five, she understands how precious and fleeting this season of life is.
Her calm presence and compassionate care help families feel safe, supported, and celebrated from the moment they arrive — because she knows just how fast time flies, and how important it is to cherish every moment.
 
Chloe & Hannah
Part-Time Team Members
 
Chloe and Hannah bring friendly smiles and helpful hands to our front desk and support team. As moms, they know how meaningful these moments are and bring that understanding to every interaction. Their positive energy and dedication shine through in every check-in, appointment scheduling, and message they assist with. Together, they help create the welcoming, comfortable environment that makes every family feel right at home.
 
We’re all here because we love what we do — and we’re honored to be part of your story.
 
So… what makes it work?
 
It’s not just the credentials or advanced equipment — though we’ve invested in all of that.

It’s the heart we bring, and the life experience behind it.

We’re parents too. Between all of us, our kids range from toddler age to adulthood.

We’ve experienced the joy, fear, wonder, and challenges of growing a family — and we bring that understanding into every appointment.

We don’t just capture images.

We create moments.

We educate, listen, laugh, cry, and connect.
 
Many families come to us for their first 9-week scan, and we’ve had the honor of seeing them return year after year — welcoming newborns, watching toddlers grow, and eventually coming back with new siblings.
 

Why “Enlightened 4D Imaging”?

 
It’s not just a name — it’s a mission.

A mission to provide clarity, connection, and care.
 
I was born in South America and spent the earliest part of my life as an orphan on the streets before being adopted. That experience shaped everything about me — giving me a deep appreciation for love, family, and human connection.
 
It also inspired our ongoing work with a wonderful orphanage in Guatemala — a way to give back and invest in children who, like me, just need someone to believe in them.
 
This business is more than a career.

It’s our purpose.
 
It’s why we show up with energy and joy every day.

It’s why we take time with each person who walks in.

And it’s why no one else can quite replicate what we do — because this is personal.

It’s who we are.
 
We’re incredibly grateful to every family who trusts us with these precious milestones.

It’s a responsibility and an honor we never take lightly.
 
With gratitude,
Jon
