Do you all let your kids win? This is footage of the winning basket in a tied father son game. I was low key hoping he would go easy and let Nile win. 😭 I feel like my dad would have let me win… maybe it’s generational.💁🏾‍♀️ #basketball #fatherhood #dadlife #millenialparenting

Networking can feel intimidating when you’re stepping into unfamiliar territory. But like any muscle, confidence in networking is built through consistent practice. I’m curious: What creates the biggest sense of apprehension for you when connecting with new people?

God you have been more than faithful and I am forever grateful!! I give you all the glory and I am thankful for another year. 💕🙏🏾

There is something so special about discovering a local culinary gem that connects you directly to culture. Today I tried @katye_rdu a locally owned Haitian restaurant right outside of Durham, NC, and I’m still thinking about how delicious the food was. Supporting local businesses is great, but intentionally investing in our vibrant diasporic businesses here in North Carolina elevates the whole community. If you love incredible food and want to support a fantastic local entrepreneur, please go show @katye_rdu some love! 🙌🏽🇭🇹 Thank you @marcbrav0 for the invite! #haitianfood #raleighrestaurants #durhamrestaurants

Having two of my law school girlies stay over for homecoming was a joy! 🥹 I made us a quick brunch spread to fuel up before sending them on their way. Honestly, having the time and mental clarity to break bread, and reconnect with friends amid all the crazy busyness of adulthood is such a blessing and very rare for me. ✨ God I’m thankful.🙏🏾 #homecoming #hbcuhomecoming #brunch #hosting

Connecting generations of legal minds—one plate at a time! ⚖️. Our annual law school fish fry was a massive success thanks to our incredible alumni, staff and sponsors @hardingandrade who showed up in full force. Grateful for a community that continues to support and inspire. #NCCU #HBCU #lawschool

1,400 registered attendees, 3 powerful days, and 1 unforgettable experience at the HBCU Pre-Law Summit at NCCU (Sept 24–26)! ⚖️ @nationalhbcuprelaw It was an honor to lead a panel with esteemed colleagues on “THE FUTURE OF LEGAL WORK: FINDING JOBS, CREATING OPPORTUNITIES, AND LAWYERING IN THE AGE OF AI.” The best part of all was sharing it with my two sons—exposing them to the power of a legal education and the countless career options ahead of them. Legacy and leadership in motion. 💙 #HBCUPreLawSummit #NCCU #prelaw #boymom

They say you can’t take it with you… but of all the gifts I’ve been given, these are the only ones that belong to eternity. Starting Father’s Day in the right place, surrounded by the people who matter most. So incredibly grateful to spend this morning in church with my family. Happy Father’s Day to my dedicated fathers, amazing husband, and to all the other wonderful fathers out there! #fathersday #father #faith

“After all, children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.” — 2 Corinthians 12:14 📖✨ A few months ago, a local church reached out to me to host an estate planning workshop this June. While I don’t post about estate planning as much as I used to, I am still an advocate and an attorney who deeply believes in this work. It was such a privilege to educate my community and connect my faith to these principles. Scripture tells us that we have a responsibility to our children that doesn’t expire. Even after we’ve raised them, paid for soccer camps, AAU tournaments, college tuition, and prom limos... our task isn’t done. God calls us to build a foundation that supports them even after we pass away. Estate planning isn’t just about legal documents—it’s an act of stewardship and love. 🕊️💼 #EstatePlanning #GenerationalWealth #FaithAndFinance #LegacyBuilding

This morning in Tobago was truly memorable. We visited the @cps_tours_tobago bird sanctuary where we were treated to a truly delicious local breakfast right on-site. Afterward, we got up close and personal with the most vibrant hummingbirds. Beyond the fun, trips like this are so important as they deeply connect my children to different cultures and give them a firsthand appreciation for nature. Eating traditional food surrounded by local beauty was a core memory for the whole family. 🇹🇹✨ #trinidad #tobago #tobagolove #familytravel
