Dr. Goodall inspired me as a young girl to pursue science and global health diplomacy. I visited her Chimpanzee Island in Uganda last year; her love for all species, has saved thousands, taught generations, and improved global relationships. She will be missed but her legacy lives on.

Every technology invented, every cure discovered, any social, physical, and emotional advancement we have ever made as a species has always started with curiosity. So c/o 2025
Let curiosity be your form of resistance.
Let curiosity be your form of hope.
Lives are depending on it-
So #StayCurious.

One of my favorite experiences serving as a US citizen diplomat these past four years has been meeting with ambassadors and leaders from all over the world. Our security, health and, economies are safer and stronger when we work together.

One day we will all be asked what we did in this moment of history. As I spend this week meeting with EU ambassadors, Dept of State Leaders, & state legislators from both sides of the aisle, I am reminded that all of us must at least try to do what we can to protect #globalHealthSecurity

In honor of #MartinLutherKingJr’s legacy, never be complicit, silent, or complacent in what matters to make this world and your community better than how you found it.
