Happy to share the exciting findings from my thesis research, now published in Science Advances! 🎉 Our study presents an innovative combined vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) and influenza (flu), designed to enhance immunization strategies, improve accessibility, and streamline…

Stop chasing people who aren’t genuinely interested in you. Friends, jobs, partners, etc. Go where you're asked questions, not just expected to give answers. Interest is effort. Effort takes energy. Energy shows respect.
A simple way to reframe resetting your life: Don’t let the words “starting over” intimidate you. You’re not really back at zero. You’ve lived. You’ve tried things. You’ve seen some stuff. Use it. Start fresh, but with better eyes. Past mistakes are an edge, not a disadvantage.
When life feels overwhelming, pause and remember the battles you’ve already fought, the hurdles you’ve overcome to get where you are today. You’ve made it through before, and you will again. Reach out to those who are your safe space, the priceless people who remind you of who…
A major cheat code in life: Being a pleasure to deal with. Kind when others aren’t. Calm when things go sideways. Reliable under pressure. Intelligence alone is overrated. Be someone who lightens the load for folks around them. People value people who make their lives easier.
At many points in life, we all need someone to speak for us where we can’t be, or guide us to the right opportunity. Do your part by putting in the work. That’s just how life works.
Nobody makes it without knowing someone. Nobody!!! Surely, hustle matters, and the person may not even be the final link between us and making it, but we always need someone at some point in our journey to making it - that one person who drops our name, shares a resource, or…
Your dislike for someone doesn’t hinder God’s plans for their life.
Any relationship that demands you walk on eggshells just to avoid being ‘cancelled’ isn’t love , it’s control disguised as connection. Complete waste of time !
Any friend you have to spend money to impress and keep is not your friend. Don’t put yourself under pressure. #Contentment

These days, everyone’s quick to blame someone else for how their life’s going. But, the quality of your life is in your hands. Own it, fix it, grow from it.
The only advice anyone really needs: Show up on time, with a good attitude, and do what you said you’d do. That’s it. That’s 90% of winning in life.
The human tongue is a beast that few can master.
We’ve normalized struggle so much, we don’t know what to do with excellence when we see it.
When we start celebrating brilliance the way we celebrate chaos, this country will change.
Completing a PhD isn't about becoming an expert. It's about • transforming confusion into clarity through sheer persistence. • learning to sit with uncertainty longer than others can bear. • finding dignity in the struggle when peers have given up. You fall in love with…
