Joe Bamisile is a shooting guard for @VCU_Hoops, but off the floor he’s getting his Master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling. With the help of his professor, Vineeta Singh, Bamisile was able to create an app - Maunda - which focuses on mental health and well-being. He hopes Maunda can help people connect and build a positive community.

As part of the first cohort to benefit from Keita’s generosity in sharing her lake house, I can say that this week was so fun and helpful during the mayhem of dissertation writing + job market. Grateful for all the support shown during my doctoral program at @VCUSocialWork . πŸ’›
