My name is Bridget, but my Anishinaabe name is Nimkiinagwaagankwe.

I'm an Anishinaabe author and illustrator from Kettle and Stony Point First Nation.
I currently live in London, ON with my wonderful son Noah and our cat, Captain Rex.

Raised in my home community and the traditional territory of my people, I grew up along the shores of Lake Huron and find inspiration in the natural world, my ancestral language, my love for my community and the journey of parenthood. I’m passionate about positive self-image, lifelong learning, visual storytelling and positive Indigenous representation for children and youth.

I graduated from Fanshawe College in 2021 with an Advanced Diploma in Graphic Design and that same year my debut picture book “It’s a Mitig!” was the winner of the 2021/22 Periodical Marketers of Canada’s Indigenous Literature Award (It was a really good year!)
