I’ll Ask An Alaskan is a human interest series of six 3 1/2 minute episodes featuring real life first-hand accounts and stories from Alaskans, both Native and non-Native.
Episode 1: Mindy
What’s the next best thing to Alaska? The Emerald City, otherwise known as Seattle. A lot of Alaskans relocate there to escape the winters, or join family. That’s exactly what Mindy Heyano (Yup’ik) did. She’s a commercial fisherman who grew up in Dillingham with a love for sports and snowmobiling. She likes the city life of Seattle, but also enjoys going home to Dillingham too.
