Hi, my name is Thurman Essie, but I go by my middle name Darby. I’m from Sioux Valley Dakota Nation in Manitoba. I’m the Energy Advocate of Sioux Valley. I help lower energy use inside homes/businesses of Sioux Valley. I bring Natural Energy, and make sure the homes are energy efficient though efficiency Manitoba programs. I’m also a licensed drone pilot. With my drone license, I can use drones with thermal camera to find air leaks inside homes. I also go out to fly for fun and fly in areas that people can’t get to in the valleys of Sioux Valley.
