Short biography

I am a first generation college student,  I am an older student and I am of Anishinaabe decent.  I am a past McNair Scholar and I am a senior in CLA and a Junior in CFAN.

Research and collaborators

I am doing a study that concerns itself with Indigenous Knowledge and Western Science and how the two disciplines can best compliment and enhance each other for the benefit of mankind. The idea is to create a bridge between them to better understandings. I am working with Professor Craig Hassel, Nutrition, CFAN.
