erican daily, digital publication in the country – Indian Country Today Media Network. My career in media began right after college as a small town sports reporter and it just ran from there.

However, that shifted over the last few years, and recently shifted again as I work to strike a balance between everything that allows me to express my imagination to the world. I welcome you on this journey with me.
