Getting to Know the AFNTS Team - Issue 6

‍

‍

Hi my name is Sean Carroll.  Prior to starting in my role as a Network Project Coordinator with AFNTS, I held several senior cybersecurity and executive roles on the West Coast.  I have recently moved back to Nova Scotia and enjoy yoga, spending time with my 15 year old son, walks, hikes, snowboarding and reading!

Alisha Julien Reid is a Mi'kmaq-trained Midwife who graduated from the McMaster Midwifery Education Program in 2013. After spending years practicing in Ontario, Alberta and New Brunswick she moved back to her home community Millbrook First Nation in 2020. Alisha has been working closely with Mi'kmaq families to have more culturally safe births and access to ceremony during prenatal, postpartum and beyond. Alisha is looking forward to working with Nerissa and the team at the AFNTS to create access on the Health Hub to content that is First Nation led.
