Great to be in conversation with Andrea Wiglesworth (she/her) and others this morning on Native America Calling (@180099native) discussing litigation against social media companies over Native youth suicides.
Honored to be the recipient of this year's 2024 Social Mission Alliance (formerly Beyond Flexner) Fitzhugh Mullan Rising Star Award. I am only here because of my family, friends, and mentors. They saw potential in me when I did not always see it in myself. With love.
Honored to learn that I am the recipient of the American Medical Student Association (AMSA) Racial Justice in Medicine Award, honoring an individual who has done unparalleled work towards mitigating health disparities. I am happy to be at an institution that values and supports my advocacy. UCSD SOM Diversity & Community Partnerships ❤️
My ID mentor, the brilliant Darcy Wooten she/her, wrote a beautiful piece asking us all (ID physicians especially) to figure out our why in our daily work. So inspired and grateful to join the ID community ❤️
