|Sena Paradis (she/her) was born in Ghana and raised in Canada.  She lives and works in Vancouver, B.C, with gratitude, on the traditional territory of Coast Salish peoples including the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh). She works as the Director of Negotiations (South Region) at Crown Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC). She was a federal Negotiator for the Maa-nulth Treaty with 5 First Nations on Vancouver Island, and the Chief Federal Negotiator to bring the Tla'amin Treaty into effect in 2016, in the Powell River area. She continues to lead ongoing negotiations with several First Nations, and oversees teams negotiating with many more. She has a Masters Degree in Public Administration (MPA) from the University of Victoria, a Certificate in Conflict Resolution (Negotiation and Mediation) from the Justice Institute of BC and a Certificate in Intercultural Communications from UBC, where she is completing an organizational  coaching program later in 2021. She is married with a son and daughter and loves to travel with her family (hopefully, again, not to far in the future). She and her family lived in the Bahamas for several years, and she has visited many countries in North America, the Caribbean, Western Europe and West Africa. Sena has received awards for collaboration within government and with Indigenous partners. She is committed to continuous learning, transformational leadership, and coaching and mentoring future leaders.
