Twin Sister Celebrates As They Both Became The First Physician In Their Family

Ti’ara Griffen has shared an amazing story as she and her twin sister becomes the first physician in their family.

Sharing on LinkedIn she wrote;
During the past two months, family history has been made twice as my twin sister Ki’ara B. and I became the first physician and scientist in our family!

We are both first-generation college (Middle Tennessee State University) and doctoral (Ki’ara-University of Missouri School of Medicine, Ti’ara-Morehouse School of Medicine) graduates.

After 22 years of education, dedication, and persistence through many obstacles, we finally accomplished our career goals.

During undergrad, Ki’ara aspired to become an OBGYN and I aspired to become a Cancer Research Scientist. She is currently an OBGYN resident at Meharry and I’m about to start a Drug Development Training Program for Oncology!

We are thankful to all teachers, mentors, advisors, and family members who guided and supported us through our journeys!
