I identify as a pansexual indigiqueer citizen of the Nooksack Nation to highlight my indigenity's both political and cultural aspects like Dr. Adriene Keen does. My beading indigenizes everyday items and continues the medicine of beadwork. My nətán (mother), a member of the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe, started beading at the age of five and passed those traditions Cuyya taught her to me. I am at least the fourth generation of beadwork artists in my family. I want to take up space with my creations add indigenous flair to accessories of all kinds.

THE
EVAGREEN INDIGIQUEEN
I strive to indigenize one bead at a time! Starting with titanium & wood tools! In addition to beaded earrings, key chains, and pens, back scratchers, clips, headbands and lighters. This boujee native loves to sparkle and through mainly peyote stitch I can help everyone sparkle. Whether you're Native Bling is a beaded back sctracter or earrings this Evagreen Indigiqueen can bead something for you!
My mother started vending with her grandma at the age of 5. Beadwork is a way of life for my family. The first time I sold at a powwow was with my sister in Puyallup when she had a beading business. I have now owned my business for over four years! I am so grateful o everyone who has been a part of this journey!
