An enrolled member of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, Brandon Larrabee is putting his OSU geology degree and geographic information systems (GIS) certificate to work as a GIS specialist for the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Using mapping technology, his work is a part of rebuilding tribal homelands nationwide, boosting habitat restoration, increasing food sovereignty and supporting tribal land management practices. Brandon works closely with his Tribe to rebuild first food networks and restore critical wetland habitat through the building of beaver dam analogs (human-generated beaver dams). He serves on his Tribe's Cultural and Heritage committee, on the Mid-Coast Watersheds Council, as a team lead for the inter-tribal Indigenous Gardens Network, and as chairman and co-founder of Nvn-nes-'a, a newly formed Indigenous-led land trust working to restore safe tribal access to traditional and reservation lands.
