Remember, pepper spray is oil based. If you get sprayed DO NOT rub your eyes. Immediately blink as much as you can to wash out some of the oil with your own tears. Then, wash your eyes with baby shampoo or dilute dishwashing soap and rinse copiously. Water alone won't do much. Also, take out your contacts.

If your med school friend group didn’t include a Family Physician, Pediatrician, or Psychiatrist, that’s all I need to know about you 😂

This October will be 5 years since the completion of Mothers, Daughters, & Sisters Of The Firelight. Just a reminder of what this wall on the Farmington Canal Greenway in New Haven looked like before 140 people collaborated as a community to create this work of public art.

I’m blessed and honored to have completed the 2022-2023 med school admissions process to earn 21 acceptances and over $2 million in merit-based scholarships. I thank God and countless family members, friends, mentors, and colleagues for their support! #BlackMed2027 #BMWC #BMIM

I hope you stop trying to fit in places you’ve outgrown. Create a life that fits your capacity.

Hey! I’m that med student you spoke with last night and I fully agree with you. But instead of emphasizing exam scores, we need residencies to value more holistic qualities in candidates. Humanism and interpersonal skills needs to be appreciated as much as scores and pubs.

To any doc in training who feels 'behind' on their personal life (as I very much did.) I got married exactly 1 year ago at age 37, have an instant family (awesome stepkids,) and will have my first in June. Everyone is on their own timeline. #dontstress

Enduring an unprecedented internet outage & 5-hour delay, #CapTheRentCT turned out hundreds of speakers over 20hrs of public hearing at the Capitol. Tenants, organized labor, teachers, faith leaders, academics, & more spoke to support a rent cap & ending no cause evictions.
