I am a fourth-year student at the University of Guelph, where I am majoring in Studio Art and minoring in Art History. I have a strong interest in learning Anishinaabemowin, and I will hopefully learn Cree in the future. Language revitalization is an important topic to me, and I would like to someday help other youth learn the language as well. I’ve been working with Actua for many years now, as part of the InSTEM Youth Delegation and more recently as an Outreach Instructor. I have a passion for working with youth and helping those in my community!”

I’m excited to hear their thoughts as well and have productive discussions on economic reconciliation.”
