Sharon Farrell

Sharon Farrell (B.A.) is from St. Alban’s, Bay d’Espoir, Newfoundland and is a member of the Miawpukek First Nation. Sharon plays a major role tracking all curatorial data and integrating such data into research and interpretation outcomes. While her formal duties involve the development and management of the curatorial data for the project, she can be found assisting with a range of IT, writing and editing tasks for the project. Trained in archaeology at Memorial University, she moved to Nova Scotia in 2005 to work on the geology and archaeology of the Debert-Belmont archaeological sites. Being involved with the MDCC project allows Sharon to feel connected to her Mi’kmaw identity and to bridge past generations of her family.
