Nēhiyaw Pīkiskwēwin (Cree Language Translator)

“In this land called miskināhko-ministik (Turtle Island), I am one of the few Nēhiyaw/Cree translators/interpreters that provides Cree language translation services for television programs which air on APTN and CBC as well as for universities and school boards. From time to time, I translate a specific word or phrase for private sector businesses, or independent cultural/social organizations to enhance their select conference themes. I frequently work with other artists on language oriented art projects.”

“Become a Cree language student and I will provide private Nēhiyaw Pīkiskwēwin (Cree) lessons over coffee (you buy)!”
