I created my first podcast today! Here I am, introducing myself, my life, and my likes and dislikes in Yup'ik. Here's a transcript (in English) of what I'm saying (more or less)...
"I am Irniaq. I work at Akiuk School. I am a teacher. I am from Kasigluk. My husband is Peter and my daughter is Claire. When I have nothing to do, I play with my baby, hang out with Sugturneq (Pete), play with my cat, kayak and read. I like living in Kasigluk and teaching at Akiuk."

Dearest Tammy,
How proud I am to be your mother. Your story brought tears to my eyes because you are such a dedicated person to the children and community of Kasigluk and to your family. Your Yupik brought back memories of my visit to the village and I feel lonesome for everyone. Remember that your mom and dad love you and your family beyond what these words can say.
Dearest Tammy,
I am very proud of you and enjoyed hearing in Yupik and reading in English your story. Your dedication to your work, the village, and your family brings tears of pride to my eyes. Your dad and I think the world of you, Peter, and Claire.
