I met Russell Ledet @thguywithyes a few months ago on Twitter. When he shared his #humblebeginings I was blown away. Thank you @TeenVogue for allowing me to write about his journey.

This is a great story of how one can "Climb the Ramp of Medicine."

1/
Exposure

He hadn't planned to attend college growing up. I recognized his perspective; it wasn't a common part of our upbringing (in families/at school) to be pushed to attend college. That lack of exposure to Black success stifles talent in our Black communities.

2/
Mentorship

After 10 years in the US Navy, he went to college. His professor saw his potential. After hearing he planned to become a social worker she set him up to be mentored by a Black researcher and from that relationship he was inspired to get a PhD from @nyuniversity.
