I’m 29 today
•••
This headshot was taken around this time last year at the start of 28 as a gift. This year has brought me some of the biggest joys and challenges, and I’d be lying to you if I said this wasn’t one of the harder years. But in an effort to show myself more love, some cool things that happened the past year+change:

* First med school publication as a poem
* Co-developed and launched a campaign and advocacy summit for @socialmissionalliance 
* Facilitated a talk with @ucheblackstockmd on her book “Legacy”
* Was in conversation with @saulwilliams on internationalism and medical genocide
* Co-founded @blackwellnessprojectla with an amazing team
* Gave one of my favorite teach-in’s on Black health movements with @peoplescarecollective 

I pray that this year brings alignment, purpose, protection and ease in all ways. And that the parts of self still changing become whole, bold, and brave, and that the unloved parts know they are still worthy of being seen. Especially in times like these.
