EDUCATION
2021-2023 Emerging Artist program, N’we Jinan ArtWorks
In the ArtWorks I worked towards building employable and
entrepreneurial skills, gaining work experience in the
creative sector, sharpening my entrepreneurial skills, connecting with creatives from coast to coast, and growing alongside a network of other young, Indigenous creatives.
2021-2022 Black Indigenous Solidarity Program
The Black and Indigenous Solidarity Program. Geared toward Black and Indigenous youth across Turtle Island, the program looked to use art to highlight the kinship and connection between these two communities. Through this program, I gained tools and resources to create art that explored this relationship
