About Me

I am a language warrior from Haíɫzaqv Nation. I have a Bachelors in French Business from GSU and a Bachelors in First Nations Endangered Languages from UBC with a minor in linguistics, and recently completed year 1 of the 900-hr Adult Haíɫzaqvḷa Immersion Program in my home community. I am a strong advocate for creating space and access to learning and reclaiming our Ancestral Tongues for Indigenous Peoples who live off of their traditional territories and have been teaching Haíɫzaqvḷa to Urban Haíɫzaqv for the past 4 years. I am especially excited to engage in meaningful dialogue with other language warriors.
