David the Piano Player
Today was a big day!
I screened a trailer of my new film David the Piano Player at the New York Academy of Medicine. It’s a healing story about trauma, displacement, and dignity. After 14 months of work, it finally came to fruition. A dream realized, and this is only the beginning. I aiming to have a half-hour segment done by the end of the month. I can’t tell you how good it felt to watch in on a big screen with a room filled with the very people who would understand David’s story the best! Life is pretty darn good right about now.
Upwards and onwards.

I am an Ethiopian- American public health physician that is using oral histories to teach about health. I have been listening to stories as a public health practitioner for a long time and as a physician for the past six years. In medicine, there is a true moral compass that points north. These stories are meant only to serve the patient. This blog is my attempt at documenting the stories that have the potential to teach how to heal for us all.
