That was a blast 😀 I told so many stories throughout that I showed 2/3 of my slides 😂 Folks were so engaged during the Q&A portion that we ran out of time 😀 @researchshine

Highlight of my week was a surprise visit from a forever mentee (she’s doing her thing in a PhD program in another state)♥️☺️ I asked why so many flowers and she said it’s Happy Belated Birthday, New Year, and I miss you wrapped in one. Colors were chosen to match @researchshine

Dr. Gina Wingood is a foremother & inspiration to many Black women centering Black women’s health & empowerment❤️ Prior phone convos & emails did not lessen the joy I felt meeting her. I proceeded to point her out to every Black woman here & even called one on the phone.
