About Me

I am in one part a product of my ancestors, who taught me the tools of voice, dance, and artistry. I believe in supporting other indigenous artists, and descendants thereof, who are influenced by their traditional past. I believe that without it we are numb. sites I recommend visiting: www.haramokngna.org; www.janm.org; www.500nations.com (the dwelling photo is taken from the Shawnee Nation United Remnant Band of Ohio in Bellefontaine, Ohio. Native American owned and operated, their Eastern Woodland Museum and Zanes Caverns tour is superb). Their address is: 7092 State Route 540 Bellefontaine, OH 43311 United States.Lapache knewel.
