Guided by great purpose, this formerly shy and nervous rez girl has accomplished things that she never could have believed possible. She earned her Bachelor of Commerce in Supply Chain Management, competed at the Young Entrepreneurs Symposium, attended the Coady Institutes Indigenous Women in Community leadership program, as a student, as alumni, and now staff; She’s honed her Supply Chain skills building schools and hospitals for the Government of Alberta, shared her knowledge and her community ties as a consultant for projects such as the Royal Alberta Museum’s Human History Exhibit and Fort Edmonton Park's Indigenous People’s Experience. She’s helped raise over a million dollars for the Circle of Abundance in collaboration with a group of her mentors, peers (and Ryan Reynolds). Now, after
years of preparation, she’s taken on her biggest challenge yet: Indigenous Box.

I have now taken on my biggest challenge yet, Indigenous Box! In March of 2021, I launched Indigenous Box with good intentions, strong teaching and a good heart.
