I love art because it’s how I process my subconscious thoughts and connect with my Gitxsan cultural roots.

My favorite art to create is digital art. I specialize in graphic design and logo creations.
Where do you find inspiration?I get my inspiration from the earth and nature. My grandmother taught me our traditional foods and medicine and I carry those teaching into my art. I want someone to see my images and hear the message through the symbology.
What would you do with $25,000?The $25,000 would be used for launch my business, which is dedicated to helping organizations and businesses develop community-facing resources and messaging grounded in cultural awareness and respect. With an Indigenous-informed approach, I will integrate Indigenous art and perspectives to create spaces and materials that foster belonging, safety, and representation. This work is centered on ensuring Indigenous people see themselves reflected in environments intentionally created for them.
