education
learn everything & take the middle path
grounded study, sacred listening, & lifelong learning
My education lives at the meeting place between practical systems, intuitive listening, and healing work.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Business — Information Technology Management from Western Governors University, and my professional background includes people management, training, systems strategy, and organizational support. I also built this and other dawnovva websites.
Alongside that grounded foundation, I have studied sound healing, psychic mediumship, authentic energy work, shamanic studies, and sacred listening through a variety of teachers, programs, and immersive experiences.
I continue to learn through work that deepens cultural humility, energetic awareness, embodiment, and care for the nervous system. My intention is not to perform expertise, but to bring a steady, gentle, and attuned presence to the people I support.
