How I Work?
David believes that the medicine doesn't do the work — the integration does. His role is to hold the container before, during, and after the journey, making sure the insights don't evaporate in the noise of daily life. He brings both the warrior's discipline and the ceremonialist's humility to every session.

My Healing Journey
David's path began with a Psychology and Philosophy degree from VMI, but the real education came through a decade of working intimately with Ayahuasca and the Ingano tradition of the Colombian Amazon. What started as personal initiation became a calling — to serve others navigating the terrain between worlds. He has built and led multiple successful businesses in the personal development space, bringing the rigor of a businessman and the reverence of a ceremonialist to every engagement.
