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

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.

My beautiful friends and I made it to @sunydownstate's website 😭 Medical school would not have been the same without @ArianaSOtto, @MD2B_Abelzie, and Marco Diaz-Cordova 💖 Please continue to support us through our #MedGradWishlist

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!
