Cherishing the ‘spirit of the water’

Lauren, a member of Enbridge’s Tribal engagement team and a Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians band member, grew up in St. Ignace, Michigan. “I just love that we’re surrounded by water. It’s such a tight-knit community,” she says. Lauren works with Indigenous businesses to identify opportunities to collaborate in the Great Lakes region and beyond. “You feel like you’re making a difference in the community,” she says, adding that Enbridge’s Great Lakes Tunnel will provide “plenty of opportunity for both local and Tribal businesses—we can grow and sustain it together.”
