As a Red Seal-certified chef, he focuses on making Indigenous food affordable, accessible, and culturally meaningful. He has worked with Compass Group Canada to bring Indigenous meals into Ontario hospitals and has shared Indigenous cooking through his teaching kitchens, making sure to include the cultural stories and knowledge that accompany each dish.
