She has taught across multiple reserves, worked directly with children impacted by generational trauma, and navigated complex legal systems from the inside. Not as a theorist, but as someone forced to learn quickly when her own family was affected.<br \/>Nancy is also a four-time international bestselling co-author and contributor to multiple anthologies. Her writing is grounded in documentation, lived experience, and an insistence on accountability. She does not write to be comfortable.
