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 […]

CHRISTEL WEKON-KEMENI, M.D. DR. CHRISTEL WEKON-KEMENI. Man, it feels SOOO good to be able to FINALLY say that!!!

I’ve […]
Read MoreMan, I can’t believe that I’m already at the halfway point of my flex block. I only have another two weeks of living in absolute freedom until I go back to school to start Intern Boot Camp, a two-week pre-orientation program that the school organizes for the graduating fourth-years that is full of various sessions […]
Read MoreI don’t know about you, but I was a bit shocked when I woke up this morning and realized that today was the last day in March. Like, WHAT?!? It feels like JUST yesterday that I woke up and blasted Future’s “March Madness” on my speakers on the morning of March 1st! (Yeah I’m lame, […]
Read MoreI’m one week into my Radiology elective and I must say, I’m certainly glad that I not only decided to select this rotation, but also that I ended up placing it at the tailend of my fourth year. 😊 It has been a real chill week, yet I’ve learned a lot of useful information about […]
Read MoreI must say, this week flew by pretty fast…I legit feel like I just finished typing up last week’s post. 😅 The completion of this week marks the halfway point in my current rotation, which means that I’m a week closer to Match Day as well as to graduation! People always say that this time […]
