Featured engagement
Kahnawà:ke 10-Year Community Wellness Plan (2023 to 2032)
I led a major community-wide planning process for the Mohawk Community of Kahnawà:ke, bringing together 26 Indigenous health and social service providers, alongside partners and community members, to establish shared wellness priorities.
Extensive engagement and a comprehensive review of Indigenous health and wellness models informed a culturally grounded framework spanning 11 interconnected wellness domains, guiding coordinated action over ten years.

Breadth of sector experience
What this work has in common
Across sectors, mandates and communities, important work often requires people to come together, bring different perspectives and forms of knowledge, clarify or affirm the direction, and make thoughtful choices about what matters most.
The goal is both a clear, practical outcome and the alignment, shared ownership and momentum needed to put it into action.
