About Me

SPIRIT AWARD NOMINEE FOR BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS (FOUR SHEETS TO THE WIND)WINNER OF 2 ABORIGINAL MUSIC AWARDS: BEST FEMALE ARTIST & BEST SONGWRITERSPECIAL JURY PRIZE FOR ACTING in FOUR SHEETS at the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 2007for the purposes of this website, i'll be a singer, just doing my singer/songwriter thing. on other sites, i'm other things (actor, dancer, choreographer, youth facilitator) but i guess you can find that out, if you really wanted to. sometimes i sing in ojibway or hebrew (cause i'm a crazy half-breed gal - and proud of it), but my latest album finds me singing in english so people can understand what i'm saying. so, what am i saying...? well, i guess i'm just trying to make sense of it all, in my own way, in my own time, on my own terms. and then, when i think i've figured it all out, i start all over again.
