I support Indigenous Peoples to implement and uphold their laws across the governance spectrum.
 
I work with leaders, Elders, Knowledge Keepers and other professionals to develop and apply strong, legitimate tools and solutions for today's challenges.
 
I support communities to follow their Indigenous legal pathways towards the resolution of conflicts and harms.   

All of my services - from one-time advice to long-term representation - are intended to help focus, enhance, and sustain the capacity of Indigenous laws to do what they always have: nurture people, care for places and respond to problems.
