About
Building community, growing leaders, amplifying voices. Grounded in the pursuit of self-mastery.
Skanii-a brand for change.
As a proud member of the Gitxsan First Nation, I am passionate about creating positive social change alongside the people I work with. My background in social work and education has given me powerful perspective on the social landscapes we navigate.
My journey began in an alternate high school program where I saw the social challenges around me came up with one goal: to help people. This led me to social work. I quickly realized I cared more about prevention and early intervention. With this, I found myself in education. I fell in love with the work and learned so much. Eventually, I found that I wanted to do more- to reach a broader community. This evolved into writing my first book and each day this evolves into growing the lifestyle brand of Skanii.
Each day, I'm inspired by my two children to learn more, share more, celebrate more, and give more. As someone who loves weightlifting and the pursuit of self-mastery, I work each day to help others in finding their strength, their voice, and their space in this world.
