Description
I’m Devon Felker born and raised in Hay River NWT known as the hub of the North as well as the home of my people from west point first nation we are apart fishing community although I do not eat fish I do fish alot and do water monitoring for my band when I can. My skills so far consist of working on completing my high-school education I’m great at problem solving and making decisions I don’t currently have many skills that relate to my job aside from being well connected with contractors and having a great relationship with my community members. When I started working for my community I got exposed to the energy saving side of life by helping AEA put on a winterization program in our community as well as helped me understand how to save energy in a home before I was ever the housing coordinator and ever since that day in 2019 I’ve been very interested in saving money for our members by helping them understand what utilities they are using too much of ect and how to save energy in their homes with simple things more recently I’ve done woodstove installs in our members homes who wanted them to help cut heating costs and have a bigger renewable impact in our community I’m super excited to learn everything the program has to offer and I’m so happy to be considered.
