My plane coming into Scammon Bay, AK to bring me back to Bethel, AK. May, 2025.

I’m always sad when ski season is over :-(

I just returned from Bethel, Alaska where we had a Training of Facilitators for PC CARES with Rural Human Services students at the UAF-Kuskokwim Campus. It always fills my spirit when I spend time in community. #pccares #communtyengagedresearch

I call it Turkey Day, not Thanksgiving. I appreciate spending time with my family eating delicious food, and watching football, but I do not celebrate what the day truly represents…the start of the colonization of my ancestors. #anishnaabe

We took the Polar Express train to the Village of Ashley and it was a nice time! Officially getting into holidays 🎄🎅🤶🎄#michigan

Such a great group of researchers and mentors! #PIRL

What do people think of autonomous driving vehicles? I had my first ride in one today and after a few mins of seeing it went the speed limit, used its turn signals, and followed the rules of the road, it was a comfortable ride! #waymo

I attended a panel event today celebrating the release of “From the Skin” consisting of stories highlighting community-based work and research with indigenous communities. I can’t wait to read and use in my classes!

I’m happy to be participating in the Promoting Indigenous Research Leadership (PIRL) workshop this week at Arizona State University. It’s been great to get feedback on my specific aims page from successful Indigenous researchers and NIH folks. #IRINAH
