I was born in Tuba City, Arizona twenty-nine years ago and was raised in Round Rock, Arizona. I currently work as the Program Manager for the Navajo Cultural Arts Program at the Diné College in Tsaile, AZ. I also live in Tsaile where my dog Moka and I love to explore the surrounding areas on our free time.

As a silversmith, educator and student, I believe firmly in the cultural arts and stories of Navajo people as catalyst for positive social and cultural enrichment.​
