Nikki Nova

Nikki Nova was born in Hampton, Virginia. Her parents divorced when she was about 2 yrs old. Her father was shot and killed when she was 10 (about a month before her 11th birthday). She lived with her mother and stepfather, but the relationship was increasingly very strained. She was technically living in the house, but in many ways "on her own" since the age of 14. This was also in Hampton ,VA. where she attended and graduated from Phoebus high school. Her senior year she was voted Homecoming Queen, which she was completely shocked by (and still is). In elementary school, she had attended a private religious school. In Jr High, she attended a charter school. Due to this, she had never actually gone to any of the public schools that was zoned for & therefore didn't know many kids at her school. That combined with some things that were happening at home, led to her skipping a lot of school & other unhealthy "escapes". She didn't even realize how many kids at her school really knew who she was, much less liked her enough to vote her as Homecoming Queen. She moved to Los Angeles as a teenager, almost immediately after graduation. She had never been there before, didn't know a soul, solder her car for airfare and rent & moved in with 3 complete strangers. No longer needing those unhealthy escapes (as she did when living at home in VA), she was very happy in California. She claims that moving to California, was one of the best decisions she has ever made for herself.

Early life
Upon her move out west, she was originally attending design school in Los Angeles. She couldn't afford to keep paying the tuition, and therefore had to drop out (the credits from that school were not transferable to other schools). This was not what she was told, before attending that school. Shortly after that, she was discovered in a nightclub by a fashion photographer from Paris, who was there to meet another model. He ended up hiring Nikki. He shot her for a couple of different French entertainment/fashion magazines, and one American magazine. She was then scooped up by famed erotic photographer Suze Randall, and her career just snowballed from there. She was to be one of the industry's top erotic models, and has been published in just about every major men's magazine several times over. In addition, she starred in many"B" movies and videos. She also hosted a show for Playboy TV for several years, called Night Calls 411. She performed for a while in a live comedy show called "The Red Light Comedy District" and toured the various Improv comedy clubs, as well. It was very successful at the time & sold out almost every show.

As far as her "off camera" work, she has written & continues to write for a variety of magazines (under various pen names) and is currently working on her first book. That however, can not be released for a few more years (for strategic & legal reasons that can not be disclosed).

Career
After her nearly fatal horse accident in late 2005, she was forced to leave the entertainment industry for a while. It took her years to recover & was seriously mentally handicapped for a couple of years afterwards. During that time she was a victim of various types of predators. Some were financial (con artists & or flat out thieves), others were sexual (and one in particular was very exploitative about what he did to her). One in particular ( the one that was very exploitative about what he did to her) did something so awful, that she became incredibly private & changed the degree that she was willing to be accessible to the public. This meant no more personal appearances of any kind ( for starters). That combined with a very serious stalker situation, was what led to her decision to begin taking steps to eventually completely change her life. Her stalker was a stranger that she had never met, nor had any kind of contact with. He was an obsessed fan that learned of her accident, when it was put on the news. As Nikki quickly learned and said "When you're a known individual, I guess you don't have any right to privacy". The FBI took over her stalker case. What the FBI learned (aside from who the individual was) was that he was a mentally disturbed individual, who happened to have a Masters Degree in Criminology, in addition to being a rather gifted computer hacker. That is how he was able to make his capture difficult, and force Nikki to go into hiding for many years. The details of all of this will be in her book, when she is able to release it.

During her time in hiding, she went back to school for Integrative Medicine, where she has gained several credentials. She has been certified as an A. E. teacher (Reiki combined with Native American healing techniques & info) since 2013. She has been certified as a CHt since 2016. She continues her education to gain 2 additional but separate degree's, as well as 3 more certifications (in various other modalities). Integrative medicine was always a passion of hers, and something she had previously always considered a very passionate hobby. She was always reading books and info on various aspects of healing, since her teens. After her accident (and all of the physical challenges that came afterwards) she implemented her knowledge from her "hobby" to quite literally help her survive/heal and eventually survive another health challenge. A few years after her accident (right about when the brain seizures were finally stopping), she was told she had Lymphoma. That was/is the other health challenge. She had lost everything by then, from the previously mentioned financial predators. That combined w/ her inability to work & function like she could prior to her accident, put her in an awful financial situation. That situation made it absolutely essential for her to try to fight it naturally. During that time (about a year and a half), she was seeing a healer/naturopath almost weekly. They became close.

Personal life
That woman was so pleasantly surprised by how much Nikki knew about natural healing/medicine, that once Nikki was better ,she encouraged her to get certified to help teach others. At the time Nikki didn't think that would be possible, due to her career as "Nikki Nova" and the stereotypes/misconceptions that go along with that. That naturopath helped remove those doubts & introduced her to several other people in the field, that became very important to her. One was a fellow A.E. teacher, and another was a Native American elder (that had been a healer since he was only 7 yrs old) all of whom she continues to learn from to this day.
