Join us for a fireside chat with Margaret Faliano!

Margaret Faliano (she/her) is a member of the Chippewa Cree Tribe of Montana and grew up an urban Native in the Pacific Northwest. She currently resides on the traditional homelands of the Mohican and Munsee Lenape peoples in the NYC metropolitan area and graduated from the University of Oregon Magna Cum Laude with a B.A. in Business Administration, B.S. in International Studies, and a Certificate in Global Business in 2021.

Margaret has had a hand in numerous narrative change and narrative strategy trainings to advance the equity and self-determination of Native peoples and various BIPOC groups.
