About the Speaker

Dr. Daniyan was born in Nigeria. At the age of 8, she had the opportunity to relocate to Guam, where her family served as missionaries for several years before once again relocating to Paradise, CA, where she completed her high school education.

She obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Oakwood University (an HBCU) in Huntsville, AL, and subsequently obtained her medical degree from Loma Linda University in Loma Linda, CA. She then went on to Internal Medicine Residency at Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center, which was followed by a fellowship in community medicine at Kaiser Permanente Fontana. The fellowship allowed her the opportunity to volunteer with free clinics in San Bernadino, CA, and also explore medical education teaching by volunteering at local medical schools to teach 1st/2nd medical students. It was during this time that she was first introduced to the California University of Science and Medicine, where she subsequently became a full-time faculty member until recently.

Her interests include wellness for all levels of medical education training and beyond, creating safe spaces for authenticity and vulnerability in the world as well as attempting to address the many health disparities in the community. She is proud of her newest role of Auntie to the most joyful 7-month-old niece.
