Michael Cowen
Michael Cowen, CEO, and Founder of Awaken2Sleep started his journey in sleep medicine in 2003, performing in-lab sleep studies as a pediatric sleep technician at Loma Linda Children’s Hospital in Southern California. Five years later, this training and experience empowered him to save his infant daughter’s life from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), a leading cause of SIDS in infants. After recognizing his calling to passionately assist others in helping their patients, Michael became an expert in the Business of Sleep Medicine, working with physicians, building sleep centers, CPAP technology, and home sleep tests. In 2015, he founded Awaken2Sleep, which empowers growth-minded dental practices to level up with proven dental sleep medicine coaching, team training, and sleep testing.
