I am a graduate student studying ethnolinguistics in the Anthropology Department of Université de Montréal. My current work is on the Yanesha endangered language of the southcentral Peruvian Amazon. My thesis focuses on the factors leading to the disappearance of the Yanesha language and women's sacred songs. I have recently been accepted to work as a field linguist on an expedition to Paraguay with the National Geographic's Enduring Voices Project. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/mission/enduringvoices/
I am also a singer and musician and play in a experimental project called "Banana and the Flying Colors" as well as a freak-folk band called "Feast of Spirits" in Montreal, Canada.

The Sudbury working-group of The Media Co-op was formed to create independent media in the North, to speak to our issues and outlooks on our communities as well as the world around us. Independent media provides an avenue for people who are wishing to gain critical perspective on the issues that matter most to us, and to give a voice to those people and stories that you won't find in the mainstream media.
