In celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth, I reflect on a moment that allowed me to make “first” history. On May 17, 2018, I became the very #first African-American to deliver the commencement address for the @uthsc College of Dentistry.❤️💚🖤
@Delta lost my luggage over a week ago, and no one has followed through with any promises made of call backs or updates. How heartless! File #: MCODL63533

Summer, I’ll never let you fight alone. I love you! #SoWhat#resilience#sisterhood
It’s been heavy, y’all! Let’s collectively take deep breaths and smile! Life is all algebra. As long as the positives outweigh the negatives, we’re still winning. We’re here. 🙌🏽🙏🏽 #prescribinginspiration#smile#dentist#inspiration
Regardless of the obstacles you face, always look up. You'll be OK. You have a 100% success rate of overcoming your obstacles. The proof? You're still here, which means you still have a greater purpose.

Today marked my fourth year serving as a guest lecturer for the Leadership in Minority Health Policy course at Harvard. I often think I return to “give” wisdom and share my experiences, but each year, I am reminded that I am the true beneficiary. ❤️
Thank you to Mentoring Queens for sharing this snippet from a past episode, which features my work with the @TheDDSProgram initiatives. The messages in the book are timeless.

Just watched a video and the guy said,
“You can have 1,000 problems in life until you have a health problem. THEN, you only have ONE problem.” if you’re healthy, that should put you in a state of gratitude. Count your blessings not your troubles.
