What is “White Coat
Dreams?”
What started out as a hashtag #WhiteCoatDreams I used during
my junior year during undergrad has now transpired into a blog/brand that
inspires others to achieve their dreams in the medical field and in their
careers. Did I think that this “hashtag” that I used to frequently motivate
myself through college had inspirational potential? – UH NO…but it did, and I
am humbled by those that are inspired through my journey to becoming a
Physician Assistant. Every day, I get questions from those who are aspiring to
be in my shoes, and I’m consistently asked about the inspiration behind “White
Coat Dreams.” Although the answer seems simple, its transformation has been
complex! This journey has NOT been easy, but if it was easy, anyone could do
it.

#WhiteCoatDreams is more than just a way to share my
journey with others and to inspire others; it is a way for me to open
up to you guys, which in turn helps me heal some of my insecurities and
wounds. Thank you, guys, for being an ear to listen and giving
me a platform to be vulnerable without being judged. I have not felt safe in
being who I am until now…thank you for giving that to me.
Since starting this, I have met some of the most amazing
people in the medical community, and because of them, I AM a better person. I
never knew I could get so much support from complete strangers. You guys
have been amazing, and this would not be possible without you guys. When I see
others' success, I am so happy and motivated that I know some of the most
amazing people, and they are going out and getting it!
#2018Goals…

In 2018, let’s start a new movement of inspiring and
uplifting women. Let’s help each other out. Let’s stop this “mean girl”
epidemic. Let’s set a better example for the younger generation. Let’s show
young girls that it’s okay to help another woman that is aspiring to do
the same thing as you. Helping someone else does not make you weak nor
weaken your strengths. What GOD has in store for your life is for YOU and YOU
only; nobody can take that away. In 2018, let’s be the better version of ourselves. Let’s be the
change that WE want to see in the world.
