Dr. Ana Y. Davies is the embodiment of resilience, having transformed a life of unimaginable hardship into one of leadership and empowerment. Born into a rich cultural blend of Hispanic, African American, and Native American heritage, Ana’s early life was a battle. A mother at 14, entangled in gang life, addicted, and imprisoned multiple times, Ana faced societal labels that tried to define her. But she refused to be broken.

David Milton Davies Jr.’s story is one of redemption, recovery, and relentless dedication to helping others do the same. Born into a life filled with trauma, David lost his mother to domestic violence and his father to alcoholism. Like Ana, he too faced the crushing grip of addiction and incarceration, serving four prison terms. But in 2008, David made the choice to embrace recovery and turn his life around.
