Faith is continuing in her mother’s footsteps as a language teacher – teaching Cahuilla (I’villuat) at the California Indian Nations College and to surrounding tribal communities. Faith is a mother of two: an adult son and daughter whom she is very proud of and who are also heavily involved in tribal community service within the local community, serving in political and business capacities. Her long-term goal is to continue service to the tribal community by developing more business opportunities to benefit the overall health, wellness, sustainability, and prosperity of her local community. A key part of this goal is to encourage more active participation in the political process both tribally, and nationally, as well as state-wide for democrats of all ages to have a strong voice in our political systems.
