Medical Travel Clerk
Tiffany Jamieson
Hello! My name is Tiffany Jamieson (Francis), and I am very excited and honored to join the Klahoose First Nations team as their new medical clerk.
I was raised on Klahoose and am very proud to be from our beautiful nation.
I currently live in Powell River with my husband and son. I have a home-based business in the beauty industry that I have run on the side for the last five and a half years. I have spent 16 years in the industry. I am looking forward to starting this new journey with you all.
It has finally been an honor to be able to work for my nation. I will be working mainly remotely, but you will see my face occasionally in the community. I look forward to seeing all your lovely faces again! And if we haven’t met yet, please stop in and say hi!
