I hold a Master's of Nursing degree from Thompson Rivers University, with a focus on Advanced Practice Nursing. I am passionate about aligning the parallel pathways of Western and Indigenous ways of healing, and I draw on my lived and living experiences with Indigenous Nursing Practice, connection to my homelands of Secwepemcúl'ecw, and mentorship from Indigenous Elders and leaders to guide my work. I am motivated by the values of Knucwentw’ecw (help one another) and Y’ucwentwecw (take care of one another) to support the health and wellness of my Peoples.
