For the past ten years, I have been addressing the impact of unconscious bias on the health outcomes of people of color, marginalized and underserved communities. In my talks, I also help corporate organizations understand the return gained from investing in the health and wellness of their employee base. In doing so, I have amassed over two million views with my recent TEDx. Additionally, I have garnered appearances on CNN, CBS, NBC, the Grio, and other national media outlets.
