November is Inspirational Role Models Month. My mother's quiet strength is what taught me what it means to serve with purpose.
Now, our Warriors remind me that leadership grows through presence by listening, learning, and walking together through every challenge, 💜

I see how hard your working and soon others will too! Just keep moving forward 🌟 #sign #hardwork #reward #universe #trendingsound

Some people are just waiting for you to fail, don’t give them the satisfaction #maturingisrealizing #maturing #success #support #trendingsong

Honoring all who served this Veterans Day. Proud to have been one of a few women paratroopers in the U.S. Army and to continue serving today as CEO of SCFG. Different mission, same purpose: to serve and uplift others. #VeteransDay #WomenVeterans #Paratrooper #StillServing #SCFG

When I started at SCFG, I met Warriors whose pain was invisible, often dismissed or misunderstood. That’s what inspired the Sickle Cell Sanctuary; a space that heals the whole person through care, wellness, and compassion. Purpose can start with pain and grow into healing. ✨

Want to learn more about clinical trials and new therapies for sickle cell? Join us at the @SickCells Therapeutics Conference on Nov 13 in Washington, D.C., where I will be presenting on the topic of Holistic Care: Expanding on Normative Care.

I appreciated this piece on what keeps mission-driven work sustainable: not just passion, but structure. At SCFG, I’ve learned that donations alone can’t carry a mission. Passion fuels the start, but structure keeps it standing and turns good intentions into lasting impact.

No one talks about how important it is to know your audience and focus on what they want to hear! This is the best way to keep people engaged #publicspeaking #publicspeakingtips #tips #secret #CEO

Today is Election Day! As leaders, community members, and advocates, we all have a role to play in shaping the future we want to see. Let’s lead by example and vote. Our collective participation strengthens democracy and ensures every voice is represented. #ElectionDay #GAVotes

A recent Chronicle of Philanthropy article explored “participatory grantmaking,” where communities help guide funding decisions. Collaboration builds clarity and trust on both sides. That’s how I lead and work at SCFG, by creating systems that serve people, not processes.

Fast Company talked about nonprofits and businesses working together for real impact. Couldn’t agree more. At the Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia, purpose-led partnerships have opened doors we couldn’t have unlocked alone. 💜

As CEO of SCFG, I believe access isn’t a slogan, it’s a system. From mobile healthcare to holistic healing, provider training, and youth programs, every program we lead meets Warriors where they are and treats the whole person, not just the disease. Real equity means serving everyone.
