Miss Heart of The Lakes, Wabin Agiizi Goo Ikwe (Morning Spirit Woman) is Lori Martin-Kingbird a junior at the University of Minnesota, studying Communication, Biology, Society and Environment. Her dream and aspiration is a career within the medical field.

Lori is an enrolled member of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe in Northern Minnesota and an integral part of her community. Lori, who has been invited to participate in local events, speak on local radio shows, talk to local youth, and exhibit her dancing abilities, uses these experiences to inspire community members. She is dedicated to helping her community and state through her volunteer service.
The talent portion of Miss Minnesota is very important to Lori since it allows her to share her Native American culture with others. She has been dancing Fancy Shawl since she was three years old and has many fond memories of dancing as a child. Through the years, she’s danced at a variety of cultural events/powwows and has became friends with many people across Turtle Island.

Lori’s social impact initiative is called: “Water You Doing?” Advocate of Mother Earth’s Natural Resources. In the land of 10,000 lakes, Minnesota definitely cares about our water; however, caring about water and caring for water are two different things. As an advocate for environmental concerns, Lori teaches simple behaviors we can all do, such as turning off water faucets when we’re brushing our teeth and purchasing household or beauty products without micro plastics. Conservation of our water and environment begins with one person, one community, one nation raising awareness and advocating for our natural resources. If we all work together, we can unleash hope for our future generations to sustain a healthy environment.

Lori is eager to meet the other contestants and looks forward to the opportunity to be interviewed for the job of Miss Minnesota and to serve the people of Minnesota. Follow Lori’s journey to Miss Minnesota on Facebook @ Miss Heart of The Lakes 2021-2022 and Instagram @missheartofthelakes.
