Might Be Vegan is a plant-based culinary group helping people all around the world to eat more plants. We specialize in creating one-of-a-kind, plant-based experiences, brand activations, and content creation with our partners.

Some examples of the work that I’ve done include planning the country’s largest vegan-only tailgate to date, #VeganAtTheGame. I’m also the creator of the #FromMeatsToBeets Challenge that is hosted in more than 100 cities weekly in North America.

As a Black woman, my focus first is on my community and helping us to shift the statistics that say we have the highest rate of diet-related, preventable illnesses in this country.

Dr. Yolanda Ragland

Fix Your Feet focuses on the surgical correction of painful and embarrassing foot deformities, including bunions and hammertoes, using the Tiara-Toe™ technique; the brainchild of Dr. Yolanda Ragland.

Her mantra, “Providing medically necessary surgery with a cosmetic result®”, is synonymous with her surgical practice and its final outcome in keeping with her patients’ concerns.

While most Pediatric and Orthopedic surgeons often substitute remedial foot surgical procedures for aesthetic obligations, Dr. Ragland integrates these two domains and furnishes her patients with both functionality and relief.

The revolutionary Tiara-Toe™ technique is a Pedi-Plastic™ approach that yields the best enhancement results consistent with an aesthetic outcome.
