Davida Shensky was born on November 10, 1951. She has cerebral palsy, which affects our right side only. She was educated before public Law 94-142 Individual Disability Education Act became law. This law for the first time guaranteed people with disabilities the right to an education. She graduated college and entered the workforce 15 years before the Americans with Disabilities Act became law.

When she entered the workforce there were no opportunities for people with disabilities within a company so she established her own business called Career Performance Institute. She works with clients to help them find their passion and build it into a high paying income. Since many people have limiting beliefs which keep them from making the right decisions, she works with clients to help them overcome these are limiting beliefs.

Davida Shensky has written the book No One Stands in Line to Become Disabled, which chronicles her childhood in an abusive home and her efforts to overcome this abuse to establish her business and establish her independence from our family. Due to her personal experiences in building a business, she has established the nonprofit organization International Disabled Entrepreneurs, Inc. to teach people with disabilities the skills they need to have their own business, purchase adaptive equipment for the individual needs, and offer low interest loans.
