Speaking
Speaking
I enjoy sharing experiences, knowledge, and insights to inspire others. I have fun speaking to audiences that are engaged, curious, and open to learn and I love group interaction and Q&A. I’ve been Master of Ceremonies (MC), delivered Keynotes, and presented to groups large and small on a variety of topics. Small and intimate or standing room only, I love to connect with, engage, inspire and motivate those in attendance.
My current presentations include:
- Strengthening Kinship Connections Through Ancestral Food Practices
- Indigenous Food Security and Sovereignty: the key to health and healing in our communities
- Food Security, Sovereignty, Sustainability, and Soil
- Indigenous Food Security, Sovereignty, and the Impacts of Climate Change
- Indigenous Climate Action: Why land-based, Indigenous-led responses are crucial to addressing the impacts of climate change
