🌟 Honoured to Share My Journey at JEDI’s 30th Anniversary 🌟

On June 25 & 26, 2025, I had the privilege of representing Sesgweg Software Solutions as a panelist on the Entrepreneurs in Action panel during the Joint Economic Development Initiative (JEDI)’s 30th Anniversary Celebration in Fredericton.

Being invited to share space with other incredible Indigenous entrepreneurs was more than just an opportunity to speak. It was a chance to reflect on the road we’ve traveled and the vision ahead.

Here are a few of the questions I was asked and my thoughts:
🔹 How important is networking as an entrepreneur?
Networking is everything. Relationships open doors. Whether it's new clients, strategic partners, or mentors who challenge and guide you. Every conversation holds the potential to change your business trajectory. I’ve seen that firsthand.

🔹 Did you have any mentors?
Several. Some were formal, like those in business development programs. Others were informal such as elders, friends, and even past managers. Each one helped me see a different part of myself and sharpened my vision for Sesgweg.

🔹 What does community mean to you in your work?
Community grounds me. I grew up in Listuguj First Nation and I carry those teachings with me. Everything I build is rooted in giving back—by creating jobs, offering mentorship, and showing our youth that there is a future in tech.

🔹 What’s next for me?
We’re scaling. I want to grow Sesgweg to be able to provide technical services, create AI tools for HR management, and support Indigenous innovation across Canada. Most of all, I want to create something lasting and a business that makes room for others to follow.

Thank you to the Joint Economic Development Initiative (JEDI) for 30 years of leadership, and for continuing to uplift and invest in Indigenous entrepreneurship. Here's to 30 more years of impact, innovation, and Indigenous excellence. ✊🏽💻🪶
