My Greatest Accomplishment: I feel that my greatest accomplishments have yet to come because I am constantly searching for new opportunities to impact the world around me. However, I am most proud of starting an international annual conference focused on interdisciplinary health research in Africa in 2018.

How Drexel Helped Me: There is no doubt that I had the best graduate school experience at Drexel. This experience gave me the skills and confidence to be a creative thinker. Drexel offered me the opportunity to learn from the outstanding faculty, staff and fellow students. I am forever grateful to Drexel.

My Greatest Source of Motivation: The desire to be the best of myself and to give back to my community.

Where I Hope to Be in Five Years: I hope to be an established researcher so I can commit half of my time to mentoring the under-represented population in research and academia.
