I am an Indigenous woman from the Dine’, Shawnee and Acoma tribes. I was born and raised in Dinetah in a small town called Fort Defiance. I have lived in the town of Dolores, Colorado for 17 years. I am the Director for the Dolores Family Project and the Dolores Community Garden. I am a Co-Founder of the Four Corners Food Coalition and currently serve on the Cortez Common Grounds Steering Committee. My work is dedicated to building sustainable systems so that communities are no longer reliant on outside resources while focusing on strengthening Indigenous food systems.
