Let’s Work Together

“I am a first-generation immigrant from Iran and visitor on this land who arrived due to a revolution uprising in my country. Honouring the women in my lineage, I am the daughter of Mehrangiz Saebi, grand daughter of Ensieh Saebi and Heshmat Golnaraghi. I am grateful and humbled for the opportunity to live, grow and work on the lands protected by the Dish with One Spoon wampum agreement, the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee, Anishnaabeg, the Attawandaron, and the Metis peoples.”
