Biography
Stella joined the Myaamia Center in 2022 as a recent graduate of ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ through the Myaamia Heritage Award Program. As a member of the ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ Tribe, it was during this program she deepened her understanding of her culture and strengthened her connection with the Myaamia community. She graduated in 2022 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism and Interactive Media Studies.
During her undergraduate experience, Stella found many ways to engage with the community; including serving as a counselor for the Eemamwiciki summer programs, attending community gatherings in Myaamionki, 'the ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ homelands,’ and spending a summer interning in ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ, Oklahoma where the tribal headquarters are located.
Along the way, Stella found a passion for learning new ways in which a community spanning across the country can stay informed and connected with one another through means of digital communication. As a Communications Specialist at the Myaamia Center, Stella strives to inform and connect the ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ Tribe community with each other, as well as educate the greater ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ community about the Myaamia Center’s work.
