Bio

Timmy has been advocating internationally for his Nuu-chah-nulth language since he was 9 years old, and began university-level Indigenous language classes at age 10. Alongside his advocacy, he completed a Bachelor of Education degree with a focus on Nuu-chah-nulth language, and is a registered British Columbia teacher. Tim is a carver, and songs are his primary focus. Hjalmer and Timmy are brothers and have been collaborating for 15+ years, working together to create Nuu-chah-nulth community songs, dances, art installations, Nuu-chah-nulth children’s books, as well as many other interdisciplinary projects.
