Tracy Skinner is from the northern Alberta community of Fort Vermilion, located along the Peace River on Treaty 8 territory, and has called Red Deer home for the last 24 years. She has worked in Indigenous Education in Central Alberta for the last 15 years, initially as an Indigenous Liaison working with students and families and providing support as needed, and then moving into the role of an Indigenous Education Consultant. She is also a Board Member for the Red Deer Indigenous Dance Troupe and has been an active volunteer in the community for the last 7 years. Tracy believes in the importance of lifelong learning, and is grateful for the opportunity to continue to learn from Elders and Knowledge Keepers in various Indigenous communities, as well as the opportunity to share teachings she has learned on her own journey.
