Harleigh has been beading since 2009. She has taught beadwork to young people with the Woodland Public School System. She is a traditional Osage Ilonschka Dancer.

For Harleigh, her beadwork is a way to feel connected to her Wah-Zha-Zhi heritage. Her beadwork ranges from traditional items such as moccasins to western belts and everything in between. She learned at an early age that individuality, creativity, and self-expression are essential to love yourself. She hopes to pass her artistic passions to the next generation so that our traditional beadwork does not get forgotten.
