What motivates you to do science?

In my life, I have experienced both sides of the spectrum when it comes to health-care access. As a result, I recognize the value of health care and sympathize with those who do not have access to it. Such individuals, like myself at one point, are my motivation for pursuing medicine. I work to acquire the tools necessary to positively impact the lives of these people and many more.

What does Black History Month mean to you?

It is a month of acknowledgment of the countless contributions that Black people have made to the United States and the world.
