Jaida Ponce

My name is Jaida Ponce (she/they), I am a Kichi Siibi Niizi Mnidoo Anishinaabe youth from Ardoch Algonquin First Nation. I’ve been teaching and growing in Indigenous Knowledges all my life. 

I work in communities and institutions as a facilitator. I’ve worked at TRACKS Youth Program in various roles for 4 years consecutively and this will be my 4^th summer as the Oshkwazin Trailblazer Supervisor. I’m excited to continue the important work at TRACKS, which facilitates and inspires STEM, leadership, and bimaadiziwin in our future youth leaders.
