I am a healthcare executive who is also a reseach scientist and an advocate. I like being multi-layered. I like nuance. I like looking at data but I also mightily believe in my gut. The power of one’s gut can’t be underestimated. In the healthcare field it is […]
I get hangry? Do you? Do you know what it is to get hangry? It’s when you become a raving lunatic because you are hungry. I readily admit I’m not too chill when I’m hungry. And most certainly no one wants to cross me when I’m in need […]
Until I owned a house in New York, I had no idea that dandelions were weeds and considered bad. Growing up in the Bronx, I thought of dandelions as pretty flowers that brightened up abandoned lots. I had no idea what weeds were. What’s a girl growing up […]
This rant I’m about to embark on has been a long time coming. It’s been brewing, stewing and marinating in my brain. My tongue has wanted to lash out 1001 times but I’ve shown remarkable restraint. This shall be my “about a boy” discussion. Have you seen the […]

When my boy was a baby, I took great pleasure in playing music for him and dancing with him while I cradled him. During my so-called maternity leave (I actually worked most days from home but that’s another bitter story…), I danced around for my son and with […]
Have you ever had one of those days that you are literally bone tired? Of course you have. We all have. Well, most of us that have to either work, raise a kid or take care of a loved one, just to name a few things that can […]
