“I am a member of the Beardy’s & Okemasis Cree Nation. In 1995 I left my community to pursue employment opportunities. I lived and worked in Edmonton, Alberta for 14 years and in that time, I graduated from the University of Alberta with 2 degrees. I moved back to my community in 2007, where I am still living, and worked for the last 16 years. I spent 9 of those years as a Councillor holding several different portfolios including Finance & Administration, Economic Development, Health, Child Welfare and Education. I also shared the portfolio of Governance with my Council colleagues. I pride myself on what we accomplished over those 9 years. We moved our community out of a long-term deficit, improved a number of different policies, and adopted 3 very important pieces of legislation that are focused on improving our community’s ability to govern itself effectively. As the General Manager, I plan to take the same focus and support the board in implementing NLCDC’s vision, mission and mandate. I look forward to serving the people of the catchment area, and building strong relationships focused on good communication. Thank you for another opportunity to serve.”
