Two Events- Leia

SWIBxSAIO Event:
I attended the SWIBxSAIO event, on March 1st, which was the fireside chat with Amy Yeung, creator of Orenda Tribe and member of the Navajo Nation. It was an engaging insight into Amy’s innovative business, her personal story, and how she is helping her Native community. I found this conversation very intriguing and inspirational, especially with supporting children’s art as a form of empowerment. I enjoyed learning creative ways one can help their community.

SAIO Core Meeting:

The second event I attended was, the SAIO Core meeting, last Sunday, March 3rd. At the gathering, first we conducted a check-in question, then, the Co-chairs went over updates and events happening in the Native community in the coming week. On account I am one of the Sibs Coordinators, I am required to attend Core meetings every week. However, I really look forward to meeting with people in Core, and discussing events that are happening in the Native community.
