“We asked for a curriculum review and received a respectful and articulate response, complete with recommendations that led to a richer, more authentic program.
We appreciated the wisdom, lived experiences, and wide lenses through you conducted your review. THANK YOU.”
“Lee is an essential guide for individuals or groups who may not fully know what they need or want to ask for, but will ultimately find themselves in the right place and time, bolstered with new capacity, well-being and vision”
Jordan Bighorn, Executive Director, Community Education Development Association
“I have had the pleasure of co-facilitating and co-curriculum developing over the past two years. When it comes to development she is creative, open-minded, and professional. Lee brings grounding energy to every facilitation session, and to projects as a whole. There is a healthy balance between fun, focus, and attention to everyone's needs to ensure meaningful engagement with materials and each other.
Lee is committed to continually improving curriculum and facilitation techniques by seeking out feedback and being flexible. One of the most impressive things about working with Lee is that she ensures her values align with the project and truly embodies teachings she shares with others, living them out in her own life. It has been a gift to co-create and share together.”
“Whether it is a group of Indigenous youth participating in a unique reconciliation program at Assiniboine Park, or in a program delivery for the innovative Winnipeg Boldness Project, she meets individuals and organizations where they are, listening to the needs of participants as well as addressing the expectations of the client.”
“The Indigenous Youth Storytelling Program at the Assiniboine Park, would not exist if not for Lee. She has been involved with the program since it began in 2021. Over the last 5 years, her contributions and insight have allowed the program to flourish beyond the original goals.
While her coordination and input have guided the program in a very positive way, it’s her mentorship with the youth, that I feel has the greatest impact. Her gentle and supportive demeanor allows youth to feel safe in her presence. She helps make them feel seen and heard.
Her feedback and that of the youth have been very valuable to our organization as we work to making a space that is safe and welcoming for all.
I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Lee in the past, and I look forward to future endeavours.
