Davina Leone is a young star rising with a powerful singing voice and a heart of gold. She learned early on that she could use her voice to help heal others and that she can share her story to help inspire teens and adults. 

Davina was a shy insecure young girl because of years of harassment and bullying. She taught herself how to play the guitar at a young age and began writing and composing her own music early on. Through her passion of singing, Davina found her voice which fueled her not only to live, but thrive.

Davina has won two YouTube awards for her successful channel, has opened for OneRepublic at Sundance, performed on E!’s “Hello Ross” and had been featured as a top artist on TV1 France. Most recently, Davina was on season 12 of The Voice. Now, Davina uses her story and singing ability as a platform to reach kids across the country. With her personal story of overcoming bullying and following her dreams, Davina has the ability to captivate and inspire young audiences in a beautifully powerful way.
