An African-American With A Desire To Inspire.
I hope that you all have had a wonderful start to the New Year thus far! I feel like someone says this every year but I going to say it anyway: I can’t believe that it is already February! January flew by so fast! Like, I blinked and it was MLK day and then I […]

Okay, this year has got to be in the top five list of the quickest years I’ve ever lived through. Like, how is 2022 a.k.a. the self-proclaimed “Year of the Dub” already coming to an end?? I remember the beginning of this year so clearly…it all flew by so fast. It feels I was just […]

I’m finally back with another one! Hope you didn’t miss me too much! It’s been a while since my last post and there is SO much I need to catch you up on. I’ve been itching to type a post up, but you know, life. I’ll try not to make this post too long, but […]

I’m not going to sit here and beat a dead horse by talking in length about COVID-19, the importance of hand-washing, avoiding sick people and social distancing. You all already know all of that, and if you for whatever reason STILL don’t, here’s the link […]
Read MoreI find it so funny how much everything changes after Match Day is over. As you know, my whole fourth year literally revolved around one thing and one thing only: Where was I going to match? With the help and guidance of others, I spent the vast majority of the year working tirelessly to figure […]
Read MoreWOW. WHAT. A. WEEK. I don’t even really know where to start. This whirlwind of a week has been such a memorable one. Well, really Monday and this past weekend to be specific. The time between when I officially matched on Monday (PRAISE THE LORD 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿) and where I found out where exactly I matched […]
Read MoreIT’S HERE. The week that I’ve been waiting almost four years for has FINALLY arrived. Yes, I’m talking about MATCH WEEK!!! Three years ago, as a first-year student, I experienced the magic of Match Day for the first time in my life. (You can read the post I wrote about the experience by clicking this […]
