Ella is Quw’ustun and grew up on Nisga’a and Tsimshian territories in Northern BC. She studied Anthropology and Indigenous Studies at McGill and graduated in Spring 2019. She is excited to be working at McGill to better Indigenous community life and support the growth of the Indigenous Studies program.
