In October 2025, my outrigger canoe crew qualified for the 2026 Singapore World Sprints happening this August. The World Sprints are an international paddling competition bringing together paddlers from around the world. I'd be competing as part of a small collective of Indigenous paddlers representing the USA and our communities on an international stage. Like many athletes in amateur paddling communities, I am responsible for covering my own airfare, lodging, race fees, and training expenses. Your donation will directly support my ability to compete at World Sprints and represent Indigenous paddlers. Originally from Gallup, NM near the Navajo Nation, I've spent years competing in outrigger canoe races throughout the Pacific Northwest and am honored to have this opportunity. Your support is greatly appreciated! Ahéhee' (Thank You)
