Who We Are

Sheila Maldonado is a 24 year old single mother that always believed in the idea of "more". Growing up in streets of the Bronx in New York City, she knew that her purpose on this Earth was to do "more". As life continued to challenge her, she always remained resilient and ambitious through her motivation of the enigmatic idea of "more".

Single motherhood, going back to college, and constantly in the state of the unknown, she dreamt of what she could become, and that was "more". She's always been vivacious when speaking on the endless possibilities she can pursue. However, she felt nervous to try as she was worried on how she can be different than the others, and convey her vision. She did not realize that what makes her stand out is HER. She believes in helping others, aiding in them to radiate their inner light and support those in living unapologetically. That is exactly what she had in mind when she began NOVAVNINA.

Through our luxurious feel and long lasting jewelry, we want you to feel like you can conquer the world, all while looking good doing it.
