Dola recent Summa Cum Laude graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Human Physiology and a Minor in Leadership form the University of Minnesota. Her undergraduate thesis, “Exploring Context-Dependent Psilocybin-Induced Neuroplasticity: Investigating Mystical Experiences and Personality Changes in Healthy Human Participants,” gave her the opportunity to present at several conferences, including the International Congress on Integrative Medicine and Health (April 2024, Ohio, USA) where she received a Student/Trainee Travel Award and won the Dr. George Lewith Poster Prize through the International Society for Traditional, Complementary & Integrative Medicine Research. Since then, Dola has been fortunate to receive the 2024–2025 Diversity of Views and Experiences (DOVE) Fellowship to begin her Master of Arts in Integrative Health and Wellbeing Coaching at the University of Minnesota. Alongside her studies, she serves as a Research Assistant with the Bakken Center for Spirituality & Healing’s Integrative Health & Wellbeing Research Program. In this role, she’s worked on Partners4Pain, an NIH-funded community-based project co-developing solutions for back and neck pain in partnership with local organizations. This work has deepened her passion for reducing health disparities and advancing accessible, integrative approaches to wellbeing. She is excited to continue growing at the intersection of research, integrative health, and health coaching – and to help shape the future of health coaching as a profession.
