Meet Our Founder

 

Hey Fam!

My name is Nika Ayanna Sewell and I am a 27 year old entrepreneur, account manager, intercessor, ministry leader, graduate student, international traveler and soon to be foster parent from Las Vegas, Nevada. I am an alumna of the illustrious Howard University where I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I am currently attending Liberty University to obtain my Master of Public Health (MPH) with a concentration in Global Health. I have plans to attend medical school and eventually become a doctor, specifically an Obstetrician and Gynecologist (OB/GYN),  that I’d always dreamed of as a child.

I also serve my community in both my hometown of Las Vegas and my community here in the Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia (DMV) area. Additionally, I have the honor and privilege of serving at my local church. I love Jesus with my whole heart and since I was a little girl, God has always highlighted the gifts of healing and faith in my life. (1 Corinthians 12:7-11) Whether that be healing through gatherings, conversations, prayers or teachings, God has used them all.

I remember going through high school and while pursuing my undergraduate degree, people would ask me for prayer and immediately any pain in their body would cease because of the way God allowed His healing power to flow through me as a response to my crazy faith. I’ve always believed God for BIG things but this purpose project, HEALED BY RAPHA, LLC is one for the books. I wanted this brand to touch the world because we’re all on our own healing journeys. It doesn’t matter if you need healing after a recent diagnosis or if you’re in therapy working to heal past wounds and trauma. Maybe you know someone else who is in need of healing, whether that be physically, mentally, spiritually or emotionally. Divine healing is for everyone! I truly pray that you experience God as “Jehovah Rapha” through this brand. 

 

Love Y’all, 

Nika
