Shaginoff, a life-long Alaskan, was born in the Territory of Alaska before statehood. She was raised with a subsistence life-style and continues this way of life on her 30 acres on the banks of the Matanuska River in Sutton, Alaska. She can often be found canning fish or moose, dehydrating vegetables, or harvesting wild plants to make medicine. She attended the naturopatic medical school, Bastyr University where she earned a degree in dietetics then went on to obtain a master's degree in Health Administration from the University of Alaska. Ingrid's hobbies are fly fishing, kayaking, food preservation and sitting by a fire beside the river watching moose, fox, bears, wolves, or coyotes crossing through or stopping at the pond to drink. Most of all she treasures spending time with her 22 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.vizualizați mai puține
