What an incredible two days in Destin, Florida!

❤️ Grateful to return for my second year as a speaker at Sickle Cell Disease: Impacting Policy and Procedure, alongside passionate advocates, healthcare professionals, lawmakers, and policy leaders. This year was especially meaningful as I had the opportunity to share our journey from a New Year's Eve idea in 2022 to the passage of Georgia's Sickle Cell Disease Protection Act in 2026. A heartfelt thank you to the organizers for creating a space where education meets advocacy and conversations inspire action. And a special shoutout to Natalie Pritchard of Dazie's Treasures for keeping me stylish and conference-ready! 💙 Thank you for helping me look and feel my best throughout this engagement! The work continues, and so does our commitment to meaningful change for the sickle cell community! ❤️ #SickleCellAdvocacy
