Summary
I have recognized this is my passion, to continue learning my and sharing the art and knowledge to younger generations to preserve our culture and traditions. I did not grow up learning the significance of our art until I began taking Native Art courses (SEALS) in school. Having these SEALS classes offered, allowed me to develop a stronger connection to my culture and understanding the importance of keeping our culture alive.
something about-driven to learn quickly, willing to do what it takes
I want to give kids the same opportunity as I had in school.
