It was bestowed upon me in recognition of my highly exceptional skills and unwavering determination in all my endeavors, especially my humanitarian work for my society, community, and humanity as a former Imperial College hospital professional.
In addition to my doctoral degree, I have been the recipient of multiple honors and recognitions, including the Dr. Pauline Humanitarian Awards, the Superwoman Awards, the Panache Global Entertainment Awards, the Beautiful Survivor Awards 2019, the Triple AAA Awards 2021, the Exceptional Woman of Excellence 2022, the WinTrade Global Awards, the WAW Hall of Fame, Speakers Awards, Stardust Awards, Peace Ambassador Awards, and many more,” explained Dr. Janelle.

“I endured great challenges and disparities when I arrived from Trinidad, my birthplace. I was left stranded at Gatwick International Airport, but I refused to be a victim. I pushed myself to become the best version of myself through hard work, determination, and resilience. I went back to school to learn why the homeless got a job at the hospital as a domestic cleaner and to build myself up to become a nurse at Imperial College NHS Trust Hospitals and an equality and diversity coordinator. Life wasn’t smooth, but I used the lemons in my life and made the sweetest lemonade,” stated Dr. Janelle.
