It was 2024. And thanks to my good friend, Kaveh Hoda, I was given an incredible opportunity.

Kaveh Hoda called me and said, ‘Hey buddy. You want to co-host this episode of with me?’ I had the opportunity to chat with John Moon. I knew his story, so it was an easy and enthusiastic yes.

Black history is American history. And our emergency medical services were revolutionized because of innovation, determination in the face of discrimination, and excellence on the part of John Moon and an extraordinary group of Black men.

Pleased to see them get theirs in this piece. So overdue.

It’s fascinating, refreshing, and humbling all at once. And makes you feel like a 👵🏾 real quick. 💀

Literally was googling things these fellows were texting me to stay hip on the vernacular. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Words of wisdom straight from the NYC streets.

Important add: And never forget those who believed in you along the way.

‘At least two…’ Tragedy beyond tragedy and trauma on top of trauma.

Schools need to be safe havens. Not spaces for preventable, senseless violence over and over again.

‘Joy is a form of resistance.’ -

What a beautiful night - an intimate space surrounded by people filled with gratitude and fortitude for the road that is ahead in these turbulent times. Karine Jean-Pierre was a gift to us tonight, and brought her full self and led with authenticity. 🙏🏾

And celebrating a fellow Sagittarius birthday with the one and only 🇭🇹 chef, , was the perfect complement to this wonderful night in NYC.

is in full swing!!

Happening TOMORROW, 12/2! Listen 🆙.

I’m excited to be a part of ’s Giving Tuesday Telethon!! And we want YOU to tune in! 📺

I’ll be chatting with my friends at COGI about everyday procedures we gastroenterologists do that give people the ick.

We’ll discuss the following:

💜 the technical perspective vs the patient perspective when it comes to procedures that help to diagnose a disease or treat it.
💜 the idea of a “procedure”, minor or not, and the fears that come along with it
💜 How do we combat that trepidation to get the quality care we need in

One of many beautiful NYC moments to see up close and personal in a ((fairly) intimate space to drop so many pearls that inspired her new book, ‘Simply More.’ Thank you again to my dear friend and fellow Tiger, , for the invite! 🤎

Appreciation post to the fullest!

A big thank you to my incredible family, because without their support, love, honesty, and solid advice, I don’t know where I’d be.

And a happy belated bdays 🥳 to the septuagenarians who are a mere two years shy of their octogenarian years! I hope to be as energetic and full of life when I’m 50 as they are now! 🙏🏾❤️

As they say in 🇭🇹 Creole, ‘bat bwa’!
