Year 1: The Foundation 🩺

First year of medical school is in the books and I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my medical journey! This year was a grind, to say the least, but I thank God for giving me the strength to get through it. I’m so appreciative of the people I have around me, the opportunities I have been presented with, and the lessons I’ve learned so far. Here’s my 5 biggest takeaways after becoming 25% an MD:

1. Just like anything else in life, run your own race and do what works for you.
2. We live in a world where complaining is second nature, be different and try to always have a positive outlook.
3. Be selective with your time and who/what you choose to give it to.
4. Don’t look for blessings to come into your life, look to be a blessing!
5. The journey is long but stay present and enjoy each moment!

NFL TRAVEL DAY AS A MED STUDENT 🏈🔥🩺

Through the NFL Physician Society, I have had the privilege to be the CLE Browns participant in the Sports Medicine Pipeline Initiative. We traveled down to Carolina for a joint practice and game with the Panthers. Such an amazing experience and I am super thankful for the NFLPS, the CLE Browns Sports Medicine Staff, and everyone else involved in making this opportunity happen. #CleBrowns #SportsMedicine #MedStudent #TravelDay #NFL #Cleveland #CaseMed by @tre_day1

Black medical students. Future physicians. Future leaders. Future mentors.

We’re stepping into medicine knowing that our presence matters—not just for us, but for every Black child who will one day see someone who looks like them and believe, “I can do that too.”

We are here. We are coming. And we’re going to be alright. ✊🏿

You Can Do Anything You Put Your Mind To…

Applying for my first job as a doctor is a surreal feeling. 7 years ago I didn’t think I was capable… Now, I know I am! Keep going, though the pace seems slow, you may succeed with another blow!

My biggest barrier to pursuing medicine wasn’t my GPA or MCAT.
It was not seeing anyone who looked like me doing what I dreamed of doing.
So if you’re that person wondering if there’s space for you in medicine—there is.
And medicine needs you.
Keep going. You belong. 🩺✊🏾

They called him “ghetto.”

But when I look at this room, I see something different.

I see Black doctors.
Black dentists.
Black students.
Black leaders.
Black excellence.

I see generations of people who were told they didn’t belong in these spaces—and decided to show up anyway.

So if being unapologetically Black, proud of where you come from, and committed to serving your community is “ghetto”…

Then let them call it whatever they want.

We know what it really is.

**Excellence. Representation. Legacy.**

To every Black student and healthcare professional working toward that next degree, title, position, or dream:

**Keep going. Keep showing up. Keep taking up space.**

Someone coming behind you needs to see that it’s possible.

Every second counts. ⏱️

Most sudden deaths in young athletes — cardiac arrest, heat stroke, head/spine injury, sickle cell collapse — are survivable when a team acts in the first few minutes. That readiness has a name: an Emergency Action Plan (EAP).

A strong EAP means:
✅ A written, venue-specific plan — practiced, not filed away
✅ An AED within 3 minutes of every athlete
✅ Immediate CPR for any collapsed athlete
✅ Cool first, transport second for heat stroke
✅ CPR/AED training for coaches and staff, not just the medical team

Whatever the sport, know the plan before you need it. 🏅
