From St’át’imc Nation, Xaxli’p Reserve. I was raised in ceremony since i became a women I started learning our culture, my traditional songs. I been singing since I was 12, started off attending more Ceremonies(sweats, pipe ceremony, sun dances, potlatches) ceremony has always played a big part in my life came first even before school work. Pow wows came second after schoolwork and homework. I made sure I always checked in with my father on what is appropriate. My life I followed in the footsteps of my father and I plan to keep following him. My children follow along with me in ceremony and dancing. My main focus is working with youth I have spent a lot of time working in the schools passion of mine.

 
 

Christian Ahrenkiel

I was born and raised on the prairies of Colorado. There I developed a passion for my environment through hunting and fishing. I moved north to pursue an education in conservation policy. After I finished my schooling, I moved to St’at’imc territory to be closer to my adopted family. My educational and ceremonial experiences have taught me about the interconnections between the health of the human family and the health of our environment. I believe that as we begin to heal ourselves so to will we heal our planet.
