Leading a diverse team of Indigenous folks and community members through the design process towards a park space that honours and brings needed awareness to the issue of Missing and Murdered and Exploited Indigenous People (MMEIP). The park will be located in the Alberta Avenue neighbourhood, and be a space for ceremony, healing, and learning how all of us can be an ally in addressing this systemic issue.
The images are of a story book that was designed to share the heart and vision of this unique project.

Reimagining the design of the Edmonton Living Rooms exhibit to now be featured as a digital exhibit on the Edmonton City as Museum Project (ECAMP) website platform. This involved translating the physical into a virtual experience, while honouring the deep heart stories offered by all participating communities.
Edmonton Living Rooms is the culmination of a series of gatherings and conversations engaging newcomer Canadians in story sharing to honour their presence and experiences in the unfolding story of lands and peoples. In this new digital iteration three new themes were introduced, including Food, Love & Resilience – chosen by community members as relevant for today.

The creation of bee hotels for Explore Edmonton’s Responsible Events Program. These bee hotels are designed to support the local solitary bee populations, providing them with an inviting and safe space to lay their eggs. Using collected driftwood from the Edmonton river valley, holes are drilled into the driftwood to the exact size the solitary bees (specific to this location) prefer for their nests.
