Hi my name is Vivian Pomeroy, I am Inupiaq and Tsimshian from Anchorage, Alaska. I am one of the few Alaska Native students attending Haskell Indian Nations University. This May, I will be graduating with my Associates Degree in Liberal Arts. It has been a wonderful experience here, teaching about my culture. I have been involved with many activities such as Miss Haskell 2nd Runner up 2015-2016, Alaska Club student representative, and 2 years on the Haskell Student Senate Executive Board. I will be continuing here for my Bachelors degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in Tribal Management. I encourage all past, present, and future students to pursue a greater education to better our future. Thank you to all who have provided the advice and experience to get me to where I am today.
