The Jingle dress dance offers healing in the community and tells a story, offering words of restoration of the ancestors from the Ojibwe Tribe, in Minnesota. Honey honors the land on which she resides here is SLC, as the ancestral home of our Ute relatives, and acknowledges the five main tribal groups of Utah: Navajo, Shoshone, Ute, Paiute, and Goshute.

Honey believes that education is vital and she educates Native American culture in the way she was taught. As an advocate/R&B artist, she teaches that Indigenous cultures are still here among the cities and the lands we walk upon. She educates her audience that Native peoples are still alive and still educating through each instance and experience. This kind of artistic learningallows us to understand each other, the land we walk upon, and the hopes of generations to come. Through teaching others we understand each other. Artist Residency allows us to strive to be one with our communities and ourselves. Teaching starts within ourselves, allowing us to search inward, and then reach out to others. Art brings people together, education brings us closer.

Honey is available to engage participants in the round dance, do collaborative projects with participants, perform for audiences, and teach singing and storytelling to all age groups. She draws on audience participation as she explains the importance of her art.
