Aanii Biindige! – Greetings Welcome!
Thank you for visiting my website. Here, I detail some of the projects related to teaching, public speaking and consulting that I am working on currently and some of the projects I have done in the past.
I completed a PhD in Indigenous education in 2018. Check out my dissertation here. I have been a professor or Anishinaabe and Indigenous studies since 2011. Here is my profile on the University of Waterloo Architecture site, where I am currently an adjunct.
I am a full time consultant and support several organizations including Teach for Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Science Rendezvous, Mamawesewen Tribal Council and the University of Graz in Austria. I help organizations write grants, better understand topics related to Indigenous peoples, and restore land, amongst other important work. I have helped secure several million dollars in grant funding for various projects throughout my career.
Please feel welcome to explore and or contact me if you have any questions mkomose19@gmail
