So you’ve found me!

Grab a warm drink, put some socks on, and feel free to sift through my current life as a student teacher!

A little bit about me…

I’ve grown up in the small town of 150 Mile House in central B.C. My hobbies growing up were selling my chicken eggs, riding my horse Hero, and playing the fiddle.

Today, we honour and remember those who attended residential schools, those who were touched by the crushing ripple-effects of having their communities and families experience cultural genocide, and for those who are seeking to reclaim their identity as strong, powerful and change-making indigenous individuals. #neverforget #orangeshirtday #everychildmatters #kindsight101 #smallactbigimpact

I have had the true gift of growing up surrounded by First Nations culture. My dad is a First Nations police officer. As my dad learned (and continues to learn) the dance between federal law and the conventions of the First Nations peoples, he was also working hard to understand his own Metis identity. It has been a privilege to learn through him, and to have the opportunity through the relations of his work; to attend Christmas potlatches, First Nations fastball tournaments, and Metis fiddling events on the reserves surrounding my town. As a future educator I feel obligated to accompany a role in this community as well.
