I was raised in a very traditional family. I strongly believe in loyalty, honesty, and respect. I also strongly believe in harmony. I do not like to 'tip the boat' and I do not like having drama in my life. I was raised to live an honest and simple life and I try to teach my children the same.

I am Kiowa and Maya on my mother's side and Oneida (Wolf Clan) on my father's. I am the 16th generation of my family and my sons are the 17th. We are a matrilineal culture which means I follow my mother's people and have my mother's name rather than my father.

I am a mix of 3 different Native American tribes : Kiowa from Anadarko, OK, Maya from Kankintú, Panama, and Oneida from Six Nations Canada. I follow my mother's people per tradition, so I am fluent in Kiowa and traditions. Myself and my sons all take part in our ceremonies and traditions. The pictures below are of my sons in traditional men's (Gabriel, Right) and men's grass (Adam Jr, left) regalia, as well as me in my traditional woman's regalia.

I am a huge activist for Native American and Women's rights. I have spoken in front of the UN for multiple causes. The two biggest organizations I have been supporting are: Sing Our Rivers Red (SORR) and Lakota Law Project for ICWA. SORR is a non-profit organization that brings awareness to the murdered and missing Indigenous women of Canada and US. The Lakota Law project is another non-profit organization that has multiple platforms for rights for Native Americans.

I am more of a spiritual person rather than religious. Being Native American, there is no set religion. I strongly believe in balance and harmony. In my tribe we have Daw-Kee, the Father, and Gwah, the Mother. Both are necessary for life and are needed for balance.
