Together as Sealaska Directors, we faced three years of COVID; a phenomenal life-changing time. We have shown our focus on honesty, resiliency, and flexibility. Our company has moved into the global arena, with a newly named production side called, “Woocheen.”

This expansion was created and is the recognized successful operations branch, a result of careful, well-engineered and methodical movement over time away from and out of a strictly extraction mentality. Today, the new production side of Sealaska is a passion-filled vision of businesses created to support the health of our oceans and lands. The recent and continued success of our ocean health businesses allows for expanded social programs which support education, language and culture. I proudly elect to live in my home community of Hydaburg, Alaska, on Prince of Wales Island in Southeast Alaska. I see the potential for the inclusion of our vision. The opportunity to implement a long-overdue economic transition is upon us. We have the ability to align with the transformation and provide the types of jobs and infrastructure identified and supported by our local grassroot entities. Our ability to thrive on our terms is our future, and our current Board and I are energetic and willing to do the work.
