Davida inherited her psychic abilities from her parents and paternal grandmother. As a child, her mother studied palmistry and encouraged her interests in palmistry, handwriting analysis, numerology and Tarot cards. She started reading Tarot cards for her friends at the age of 15, It wasn't until three years later that she discovered her abilities as a trance medium while participating in her father's weekly meditation group.

In 1980, she started to read Tarot cards professionally and continued to develop her other intutive gifts--clairvoyance, clairaudience and clairsentience.

In 1987, Davida began peforming readings in the Excalibur nightclub with her friend, clairvoyant healer, Kathryn Haun. A few years later, Davida met former Sun-Times columnist, Jeffrey Zaslow and began a 12-year relationship working and coordinating a terrific group of psychics for his annual "Zazz Bash"–one of the largest singles mixers in Chicago. Her little group of readers was always a hit!

In 1994, Davida relocated to Los Angeles and established herself, once again, on the party circuit, working with some of the finest event planners, hotels and caterers. She also participated as an exhibitor, performing readings, at several of the Whole Life Expos in Los Angeles and Pasadena.

In 1995, Davida briefly performed readings online in CompuServe’s New Age Forum. A few years later, at the request of an independent producer, she consented to work as a telephone psychic for Psychic Encounters, one of the more respectable Psychic hotlines, as part of a research project.

At the urging of several friends, she contacted a few radio stations with regard to working as a radio psychic. KRLA-AM radio responded to her inquiry and asked her to be their "Psychic Home Girl." As is often the case in radio, KRLA-AM changed their format and she was no longer on the air.

After being repeatedly asked at expos, "…when are you lecturing?" she took it as a sign that she should start expanding in that arena. Her lecture, "Connecting to the Spirit Within," at the "Adventures in Body, Mind and Spirit Expo" in Spokane, was often "standing room only."

On February 6, 2001, Davida was briefly featured reading Tarot cards on Lifetime's television show Operation Style's "Bridal Shower" episode. She also had been called upon to read Tarot cards oncamera for several pilot television programs.

Davida is currently a member of both Santa Monica Community College's and West Los Angeles College's adult education faculties. She offers classes on how to read Tarot cards without reading a book. Her classes provide her students with hands-on experience in a friendly, loving environment.

Davida is a favorite entertainer of many movie and television industry professionals at both their industry and private parties. She builds relationships with her clients and they find her insight into their life changes and opportunities incredibly valuable. She is a consummate professional, ethical, accurate, and entertaining!

Davida continues to see clients, work events, teach, and lecture whenever possible. Her blog, "The Clairvoyant's Corner" www.imrappaport.blogspot.com incorporates Tarot, Oracle cards, astrology, channeled information and any topic that she feels can assist people on their life path.
