Below is a collection that documents some of my journey through the intersections of community leadership, global health, and life sciences. While these appear as milestones, they are truly a reflection of the challenges navigated and the missions pursued. More than just achievements, they are truly a reflection of the challenges navigated and the missions pursued.

What's a break without fresh air?

 It is natural for us humans to become complacent with our lives, the people, and the opportunities at our disposal. This behavior is innate and completely understandable. Think about it, if you saw a [beach] everyday, you may not view it with the excitement of someone who grew up days away from the ocean. This is not due to a lack of appreciation, but rather because [it] was at your becking call, [it] was easily... accessible. Take a chance and try something new, you never know what awaits I think many of us can agree that humans are often habitual creatures. More often then not, our lives get busy and we find comfort in our routines. The increasingly fast-paced, urbanized, and technologically advanced nature of society does not help combat this tendency.

Where Now?

Pflanzen aus der Mojave und Colorado Wüsten

I never envisioned that I would stop and photograph so many flowers during a trip. I personally am more of a landscape person, however sometimes we also have to pay respect to the little things as well.  Somethings are just posing for pictures Beavertail Cactus Chia Barrel Cactus A Joshua Tree beginning to bloom What's the point of snapping photos just to snap if you still don't ever understand where you where and why the land is the way it is. The Desert as dry, hot and unforgiving as it can be holds many jewels and in my opinion is a very tranquil and relaxing environment free from the hustle and bustle of city life and monetary drive. Flowers or communal weeds? Mojave Yucca Cholla Catus. The lighter the fingers; the more water  A blooming Ocotillo. Trademark of the Colorado Desert Blooming Yucca Brittlebush Another variation of the Cholla Cactus Cohabitation by choice or by necessity? So I le...
