This Brooklyn girl is headed to the Boogie Down! Honored to have matched into @MontefiorePeds Social Pediatrics. Even more honored to be able to celebrate with my grandma who immigrated from behind God’s back, Jamaica so this can be reality 🥹🤭 #Match2023

An honor to join President Riley, Acting Dean Lazar & my co-advisor Dr. Jacobson-Dickman to induct these amazing @SUNYDownstate students from the Class of 2024 into the @GoldFdtn Humanism Honor Society. #GHHS reinforces the importance of the human connection in healthcare!

Good luck to everyone who submitted ERAS!
If anyone is applying Peds, applying as a DO, or couples matching, happy to answer questions and help! ✌🏽

Tomorrow is the first shift as a doctor for many URM interns, including myself. And no matter how hard this country tries to eliminate us, we will continue to encompass spaces that were not intended for us to occupy and to fight to be where we deserve to be.

Testimony time ✨
Medical School is HARD! I'm no stranger to remediation.. the first two years of pre-clerkship I might have remediated at least 4 /9units.. 2 of which were in the very first semester. I was 👌🏾close to repeating MS1 and didn't even realize!

Honored to have matched at @WashUNeurosurg as the first African American female to train here! Can’t wait for the next 7 years surrounded by mentors, residents, and co-interns that I love 🥰

I’ve failed, I’ve wanted to give up. I’ve fallen but I’ve gotten back up again! So grateful for my support system. I thank you God, I’m gonna be a pediatrician 💕🫶🏾. #Match2023 #pedsmatch2023
Blessed to be surrounded by amazing people like my future neurologist @ArianaSOtto ✨ As always, incredibly proud of your setting THE standard in all you do. Can’t wait to see all the amazing things you accomplish. And we get to do residency in the same city!
Today was so emotional and left me speechless. To say that I am happy & grateful would be an understatement. Thank you @MtSinaiNeuroRes!!! Congratulations to my COM2023 peers and co-interns! I am so excited to be on this next journey with you all 🤎 #NeuroTwitter #DownstateMatch
