ABOUT CHENOA - FOUNDER OF DOVE181
Hi, I’m Chenoa, and I founded DOVE181.
I’m a business owner and support worker, and a lot of my life has been spent alongside people in the disability community. I’m also the mum of a young adult with autism, which has shaped how I see the world in ways I couldn’t have imagined earlier in life. These experiences are at the heart of why DOVE181 exists.
I believe in creating spaces where people feel comfortable being themselves — not rushed, not judged, just accepted. I care deeply about honesty, patience, and meeting people where they’re at. These values guide the work I do every day and form the foundation of DOVE181.
I’m passionate about encouraging others to grow into who they are, in their own time and in their own way. Through DOVE181, my hope is to support people to feel seen, valued, and empowered — and to help build a community where everyone can thrive as their full, authentic selves.
