    Wellness Coach | U Got This!

    As a dedicated Wellness Coach with a Bachelor of Science in Public Health, I am passionate about leveraging health-forward, life-changing technology to make a positive impact. My role allows me the privilege of introducing and educating individuals about these innovations daily. I am particularly committed to being part of the solution to diabetes in the Black and Brown communities of Columbus, Ohio, through my involvement in targeted wellness programs.

  • Sierra McGaha

    Program Manager | U Got This!

    I am Sierra McGaha, the Program Coordinator for U Got This. My passion lies in community stewardship, serving people, and promoting diabetes wellness. I find fulfillment in identifying needs and ensuring they are met. My commitment extends to positively impacting every individual I encounter.

    Recognizing the disparity in diabetes health within the black community, I am dedicated to changing the narrative. The African American Wellness Agency shares this commitment by bringing essential clinics directly to the community. Our program operates with love, support, incentives, and accountability, serving this community effectively.
