Dawn Shand Johnson is the founder of Umyune, a wellness platform dedicated to making holistic healing accessible and attainable. With a rich background in the beauty industry as a former Beauty Editor for Genlux magazine and a seasoned makeup artist in Los Angeles, Dawn has always been passionate about the intersection of beauty and wellness. 

Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Dawn has called Los Angeles home for over two decades, where she lives with her two children. Her personal health journey, marked by challenges such as eczema, anxiety, allergies, adrenal fatigue, and hormonal imbalances, led her to explore and embrace holistic healing practices. This exploration deepened during her first pregnancy, inspiring a transformative approach to health and well-being.

Dawn's commitment to holistic wellness is reflected in her extensive studies and certifications. She is a Certified Holistic Nutritionist from the Institute of Holistic Nutrition and holds a certification in Plant-Based Nutrition from the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies.
