Marissa Groulx

Marissa Groulx is a member of the Sagamok Anishnawbek Nation, a part of the Three Fires Confederacy. She has a strong love for the creative arts, which has led her to study Fashion Design and get her Bachelors of Commerce Degree so she can specialize her career in fashion, fine arts, and sustainability. This year, Marissa has opened the doors to her own business for design, workshops, and space to grow as an Indigenous businesswoman and artist. What sets her apart from the rest is her ability to customize. Marissa believes handmade goods are more valuable than today's mass-produced fast fashion and disposable items.
