After earning bachelor¡¯s and master¡¯s degrees in archaeology from the University of Saskatchewan, Talina started her career in the nonprofit sector. She focused on advocacy, public education, and community-based archaeology. After moving Calgary, she joined us to help create a space for community and industry voices to communicate.
Talina is a senior associate and Indigenous services senior advisor. She combines her written and oral communication skills with a passion for connecting people to facilitate collaborative work and bring necessary voices, perspectives, and decision makers together. Her goal is to facilitate collaboration throughout the entirety of a project and advance economic reconciliation, create trusted and transparent relationships, and strive for more informed and co-designed projects between industry and communities.
When she isn¡¯t helping facilitate conversations, Talina spends her days with her husband, three children, and their dog. She enjoys biking, skiing, hiking, and trying to grow a garden in the Calgary climate.
