Aiyana is Ktunaxa on her mother’s side, and Blackfoot, registered Blood tribe, on her father’s side. She grew up on the traditional, ancestral, unceded territory of the Ktunaxa in ʔakink̓umⱡasnuqⱡiʔit (Tobacco Plains), where she had the opportunity to learn Ktunaxa, and cultural practices from her grandmother, and elders within her community. Aiyana is a proud Ktunaxa youth, and supports her community with language revitalization through unconventional capacities!
