She incorporates her passion into her work and brings
excitement to personal growth and healing.
“I was very honored to be asked to participate on the Choice & Consequence Board.
This program has inspired many of our Native American children to closely examine and understand the dynamics of their bodies and the importance of how they maintain their health. Our goal
is to be healthy for the next generations to come.”
