Firmly believing he holds a responsibility and role in the professional developments around clean energy, environmental conservation and Indigenous/First Nations Treaty Rights as well as Economic Development and Youth initiatives. He does his best for his nation and the next seven generations, as his ancestors intended for him and his people.
“We are a living testament to our ancestors prayers” is a saying he lives by and holds this up in all respects and walks of life in his travels.
Coming from a background of generational Carpentry and environmental protection via firefighting within his nation he hopes to apply those skills along with those gained from entrepreneurship opportunities such as Indigenous Coaching through Cando Cohort #11, The First Nations University Entrepreneurship Camp and motivational speaking in his youth into his now role of Clean Energy Youth Coordinator working closely with the Frog Lake TTES High school to bring opportunities to the youth and his nation. His dream is to integrate and develop strategies to live among the land and work closely with Mother Nature to give back to the land just as much as we take as human beings under the scope of consumerism. Ay’Den believes in consistency.
