Hello, I'm Taja (TAY-uh / teɪ.ə)

Multimedia storyteller passionate about community-focused andpublic interest storytelling across social justice, health, and policy. Born in Kitimat, I grew up alongside the Haisla community, bringing a grounded understanding of rural and Indigenous perspectives on healthcare access that shape my approach to storytelling and engagement.

5+ Years experience in communications strategy, copyediting, project management, and crisis response, with a focus on:

  • Marketing

  • PR & Press Release

  • Non-profit Communication

  • Illustration & Graphic Design

  • Photography & Event Management

  • Community Engagement

  • Crisis Management / Emergency Medical Responder (EMR)

  • Law, health & policy

I recently took a planned career break to provide end-of-life care for my grandmother and am now ready to return to full-time work. I have a valid drivers license, full access to a reliable vehicle, and am willing to travel or relocate for the right opportunity.

Outside of work, I enjoy skiing, traveling, and the arts, but nothing beats a home-cooked meal from Auwa (“grandma”) or time spent with my dog and cat.
