As the tribal administrator for the Native Village of Tazlina, Marce Simeon oversees all office operations, using her experience as an Indian Child Welfare Act coordinator to continue to be a voice for families and children in crisis. After five years in this role, she looks forward to using her sabbatical to celebrate several milestones, including the completion of her bachelor’s degree in applied leadership technologies and the construction of Tazlina’s new community hall. She and her husband will celebrate their anniversary with a trip to Australia and New Zealand, after which Marce will spend time enjoying Alaska and working on a novel.
