I recently turned 26, and have been living in the Sin Francisco Yay Area since September 2000 to search for a new life. I was born in Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada, and grew up in Leaf Rapids, Manitoba, while also spending time on our Indian Reservation, Granville Lake (aka Mathias Colomb Cree Nation-Pukatawagan). My oldest brother still lives on the Reservation in Pukatawagan, while the rest of my family is scattered throughout the Province of Manitoba. I have three older sisters, and one younger & one older brother. I've travelled and lived all over Canada, where Vancouver, BC, has left a profound impact on me with its beauty, cleanliness, and the people. I've had the privilege and honor to travel across Western Europe in recent years, where I visited many cities & countries including: my favorite country & people (the Dutch) in Amsterdam/Hilversum/Leeuwarden, Netherlands; GUCCI Flagship in Milan, Italy; the Eifel Tower in Paris, France; the magnificent Church in Cologne, Germany; The EU Capital of Brussells, Belgium; the beautiful beaches of Barcelona, Spain; and finally visiting Buckingham Palace in London, England, perfect for a QUEEN. After my many journeys, I ended up in San Francisco and fell in love with the Bay Area, and California.Life has given me many rewards, in addition to some heartache along the way, but I always strive to be the best that I can & make do with what I have.A new life is what I have found, and what an AMAZING journey it has been. I am currently in my Senior year at the University of California, Berkeley finishing up my Bachelor's degree in Psychology with the intent of continuing on to medical school.My Reservation/Tribe that I'm enrolled/registered with is the.....
