Happy Father’s Day to my Daddy, my hero. May you continue to rest in peace.

Not a day goes by that I don’t think about you. Some days it’s your laugh. Some days it’s your voice. Some days I just wish I could call you and hear you say, “I’m proud of you, baby girl.”

You weren’t just my father—you were my protector, my encourager, my teacher, and the one who taught me what strength really looks like. Your legacy lives on in everything I do, and your love still covers me like a shield.

Today hits a little different. But instead of just mourning your absence, I’m honoring your presence in my life—the memories, the lessons, and the unshakable love you gave so freely.

Thank you for everything, Daddy. I miss you more than words can express.
And I’ll love you forever. 💔🕊️

Dope. Black. Oral Surgeon. 🦷✨

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery is the top dental specialty—and guess what? Black women make up less than 2% of this field.

That makes me part of a rare breed… a unicorn in scrubs and stilettos. 🦄

My friend gifted me this shirt and it says it all. I wear it with pride, purpose, and power.

✨ Inspiring Future Oral Surgeons ✨

Last week, I had the honor of hosting Jadyn, a passionate student who drove all the way from Houston, TX to shadow me in the office! 🚗💨 She observed not one, but two All-on-4 surgeries, and her excitement for the field was truly contagious.

Jadyn shared that she’s been trying to shadow an oral surgeon for over 5 years and finally had the opportunity. Her dedication and perseverance are incredible, and it reminds me of my own journey into oral surgery. She found me via and The Golden Foundation.

Mentorship and giving back to the next generation of professionals is one of the most rewarding aspects of what I do. I’m so proud of Jadyn for taking this big step toward her dream, and I can’t wait to see where her journey takes her!

To all aspiring oral surgeons out there: Never give up on your goals. Hard work and determination always pay off! 💪
