God is good and Justice is served. At the same time, this is more of a relief than a joy. The fact that so many black and brown people were anxious about this verdict (when there is obvious hi-def video of the crime) speaks to the state of our justice system.

One of the best pieces of advice about choosing a specialty I’ve heard is to go into the field that has the most interesting/appealing research to you. Now I say that in every convo about specialties I have, bc I was VERY bored with research until I found the right field! 🥴😂

Highlights from last week on my ultrasound elective include a retinal detachment (didn’t know we did US on eyes), a pregnancy, and lots of MSK stuff, especially doing my first US guided IV access!! Excited for what’s to come this week
