OUR STORY

FOUNDER

Hello! I’m Kayla Holston, founder of Melanin Med LLC—a merch store for ~melanated~ health professionals & allies. Whenever I search for shirts, masks, stickers, pins, accessories, etc., I have a hard time finding products made for Black people in medicine, especially Black women physicians. I decided to design some items for myself and thought, why not share? Let's normalize seeing Black people on "future doc" and "I'm a health professional" gear! I hope you find something that speaks to you and, if not, please email me your thoughts and I will work on something custom made!

​

Where we're headed...

As more capital is raised, Melanin Med LLC aims to establish a scholarship and mentorship program for aspiring health professionals. We would appreciate your support in propelling us to that point with a purchase or donation (receipt provided)!
