I’m a nurse, educator, researcher, and advocate dedicated to transforming the nursing profession. My mission is clear: to create a future where minority nurses feel valued, supported, and empowered to thrive. As someone who’s navigated the challenges of racial discrimination firsthand, I’m committed to challenging the status quo and promoting racial civility, kindness, and inclusivity within nursing.
With a doctorate in Human Services, a master’s in community mental health, and a specialty in psychiatric nursing, my work is rooted in understanding the unique struggles minority nurses face. My research on Minority Nurse Role Conflict and The Invisible Black Nurse seeks to amplify these voices and drive social change.
This work isn’t just about talking—it’s about action. I’m here to empower leaders to break down barriers, build inclusive communities, and create systems that support and nurture the next generation of nursing professionals.
Let’s create a nursing profession that truly reflects the values of respect, compassion, and equity.
