A Prince Albert Métis woman is marking a significant achievement with her graduation from Saskatchewan Polytechnic, while also receiving recognition for her commitment to strengthening her community and preserving Métis culture.

Emily Davies-Arnason recently completed the two-year Hairstyling program at Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s Prince Albert campus. Raised on a farm outside the city, she said her path into hairstyling was rooted in a long-standing passion for creativity and helping others feel confident.

Davies-Arnason was also selected to receive the Reconciliation in Action Award, which recognizes students who demonstrate leadership, community involvement and a commitment to supporting others.

"Receiving this award is incredibly meaningful to me. It represents more than academic success. It reflects the effort I've put into supporting others, getting involved in my school community, and stepping outside of my comfort zone. It's a reminder that kindness, leadership, and community involvement matters, and I feel really honored to be recognized, said Davie-Arnason.
