My Story

As the Founding Director of a community education program and serving on the boards of various non profits, I embrace the mission of transforming lives through education. I believe that we all have a duty to be in service to everyday people who are challenged by socioeconomic hardships.

‪Success = Preparation + Opportunity. Here in the Docs office and just read @Trevornoah motivational words in the recent issue of @WebMD ! ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🗣 Powerful words: “...you have to be in the position to exercise your luck. That means working hard — so you’re ready to receive the luck when it happens.”⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💡 Takeaway: Focus on working insanely hard but being mindful of how you can leverage every moment towards your ultimate goal. Whether it’s through connections, positioning your product/brand, or even sharing unique updates about the work you’re doing! ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Stay motivated, persist, and be ready for the moment of success!⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ {#Motivation} {#Goals} {#Success} {#Focus} {#Vision} {#NYC} {@TheDailyShow} {#Networking} {#ErrolOlton} {#TrevorNoah} {#CareerTips} {#Tips} {#FoodForThought} {#Tuesday} {#TuesdayMotivation}
“Unhidden and Unhindered” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‪🎨I recently took up painting, trying my hand with acrylics. I saw a snapshot of a 22yr old Sudanese Woman who, in protest, took to the top of cars and demanded more from her country. ‬ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‪✊🏾I felt inspired to have my own take on it, placing the scene on the outskirts of Washington DC. American Women have been on our frontlines, demanding more for their own quality of life, respect, and political change. ‬⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ {#Art} {#NewHobby} {#LiveLife} {#Feminist} {#BlackArt} {#Vision} {#EthnicArt}‪ ‬{#Artist} {#SocialChange} {#Acrylic} {#Painting} {#BlackArtist} {#SudansStatueOfLiberty} {📸: #LanaHaroun}
