Dr. Nadia Judith Bijaoui
Creator of Bio Health Education (BHE)
Early on, it became crystal clear to Dr. Bijaoui that a new kind of health model was needed. A new model based on research findings but tailored to the general population. Those with scientific expertise are few, but everyone is concerned with optimal health. BHE is the bridge between those scientific findings and the individual’s quest to understand and protect their health. The gift of health has many facets expressed in several dimensions. Each member of the BHE Dream Team has particular knowledge and unique perspective to share for a healthier and better world.
​
Dr. Bijaoui is a published author. Her scientific research includes:
- Mister Rogers (1928-2003) Through the Holistic “Health & Wellness” Lens – Current and Historiographic Lessons (Bijaoui et. al., 2022).
- The Footprints of a public health model in Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood (Bijaoui, 2020).
- Can Dream Science Be Used To Elicit Healthy Behaviors? (Bijaoui et al., 2018-2019).
Brian H. Davis, Esq.
BHE Advisor and Clean Environment Expert
Brian Davis’ expertise may be a newer attitude for most of the world. For Brian, respecting and honoring nature is innate. From childhood memories to his respected law practice, his love for nature is boundless and became his dedication. While environmental sustainability has been deteriorating for decades, Brian kept true to his mission for a healthier environment. Younger generations want to learn. Older generations want to change.
Thank you Brian! BHE Project Seas & Soils Sensational blissfully welcomes your knowledge and
your commitment to a better world. BHE is looking forward to your involvement and to your
continuing contribution to a healthier world! You may see Brian’s resumé at BHE Project Seas & Soils Sensational.
Jane Halevy
L’Artiste du Jour!
Jane holds a pencil like a magic feather with much passion and an amazing visual capture! Several of her art pieces were created to illustrate BHE publications. Those pieces and others will soon be displayed at BHE Club-CRK to be admired and available in the BHE Shop for purchase. Her incomparable talent is revealed in her incredible special effects scenes and made her an especially sought-after make-up artist. We are excited to announce she will soon be producing Art Therapy tutorials for BHE.
First and foremost, Jane is a mom! She is also a spirited defender and activist for human and animal rights. At a young age she was shocked, traumatized even, when seeing animals tortured for what she called “Blood Fashion.” In 2006, she founded the International Anti-Fur Coalition (IAFC). She is presently involved in the liberation of the hostages of October 7th.

My name is Denise Kell, and I am a graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Southern New Hampshire University. As a mother to a special needs child, I am deeply committed to advocating for individuals with disabilities and fostering inclusive opportunities that empower them to reach their full potential. During my academic journey, I gained valuable insights into special education and disability support through internships, where I assisted adults with disabilities and children in special education settings. These experiences, along with my personal journey, have fueled my passion for creating a better world for individuals with disabilities. I am honored to join VIDA’s mission and to contribute as an intern and research assistant. I look forward to collaborating with this inspiring team to drive meaningful change.
