Sector:
Unique Applications: I believe in keeping it simple from a First Nations perspective the way my elders taugh me, it's about being fair, firm and consistant and being assertive, honest, and respectful to all I meet and to all living things with a spirit. I believe that no one is above common courtesy, no matter who you are, we all deserve respect.
Key / Major Clients: Since its conception - start up in April 02 of 2003 up to March 13,2006, I have completed nearly 90 workshops in First Nations communities in Alberta, NWT, Saskatchewan, Manitoba - Ontario as well in most provincial cities, the majority of my work is with First Nations Communities.
I have had 1123 clients participate in these workshops, 835 ladies
- 288 men.
I'm still active in providing workshops and other requests in the four directions of our First Nations people.
Update: Today is January 27, 2009, I'm still providing personal wellness workshops, from my last entry here my workshop presentations have increased, as well as meeting new clients who have come to me for one to one counselling that have attented my many workshops I've presented. I must also add that my clientele is changing to not just working with First Nations people but also with non-aboriginal individuals as well.
References upon request.
Success Stories: I believe I'm a success story proving that when you have desire and determination to succeed and make it out there, just don't give up on your dream. Just go out there and DO IT! I decided to be part of the solution and not the problem as with many First Nations people are stuggling with today, anyone can go out there and be part of the solution and help others with life's everyday problems.
With my life experience's, educational background, cultural - tradtional teachings, it is with these experiential teachings that make my workshops/presentations so effective, and I encourage all those I've met so far in the workshops I've presented to go out do what I'm doing, just do it!
Don't give up, becasue there will be many that will try and discourage you, more frustrating when you try and apply for a business grant or loan, there just isn't any for First Nations entrepreneurs, in nine (9) I've been in business I have never received a loan or grant to operate because there just isn't any for a First Nations business, sorry to say!
Testimonial: Since my first workshop in April 2003 and since then, I have from gotten an evaluation from every workshop, nearly everyone with a positive response, which are available upon request! as well as references.
The workshops I present are unique, honest and many say my workshops and or presentations are best they have attended and I have had many who returned to my workshops, as many as five times.
Copies of testimonials/evaluations available upon request.

I have met this man in November 2003 when we asked him to come to our community in northern Manitoba to come and do his presentation on the "Inner Child" we were so impressed with his work we asked him to return to do more healing and wellness workshops as well as come in for 5 days and do 1-1 counselling which he did for three years twice a month. He has helped me tremendously in my own healing journey, he does awesome work, down to earht and very knowledgable about native culture and knows his stuff, if you hire him you will not be disappointed.
