I am an Ojibwe-Cree actor, writer, director, music producer, and program manager dedicated to Indigenous storytelling. My journey began at the Nor’West Community Centre in Winnipeg, where early exposure to the arts ignited a lifelong passion for performance and creative expression.

On screen, I’ve appeared in short films including Don’t Look @ Me (Sean Kinsella) and Unless You Have Been There (Farrah Murdock), the feature Aberdeen (Ryan Cooper & Eva Thomas), and Season 3 of the series Acting Good (APTN/CTV Comedy).

My directorial debut, Stay Awhile, created through the Skodoodisden Project, screened internationally at the Red Nation International Film Festival (Los Angeles), Pocahontas Reframed Film Festival (Richmond, VA), and across Turtle Island.

Behind the scenes, my career has spanned cinema operations, legal work as a Trademark Paralegal, and leadership roles in film organizations. I currently serve as Program Manager for the Winnipeg Indigenous Filmmakers Collective (WIFC) and as Education & Outreach Coordinator for the Winnipeg Film Group (WFG).

In 2025, I graduated from the National Screen Institute’s CBC New Indigenous Voices program, where I worked as Assistant Director on Rezervations for Two and later joined Eagle Vision as an Office PA. That same year, I became a proud member of ACTRA.

I continue to balance acting, writing, and directing with a commitment to fostering spaces where Indigenous voices can thrive and be represented authentically on screen.
