I create, connect, work and heal on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. I acknowledge my responsibility to learn about the past and take proactive steps towards reconciliation. I am grateful for the training and teachings of the Indigenous Sport, Physical Activity and Recreation Council (I·SPARC) and teachings of the San'yas Indigenous Cultural Safety program.

I come from a place of support and affirmation for the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
