HEAVY EQUIPMENT OPERATOR APPRENTICE, KALISPEL TRIBE OF INDIANS, KALISPEL TRIBAL MEMBER
Byron is a dedicated family man and heavy equipment operator who draws strength from his roots. Raised by Michelle Treetop and Logan Bowman, he learned the value of hard work and honesty early on. His grandmother, Shirley, was a powerful influence—both professionally and spiritually—instilling in him a deep respect for culture and resilience. Though his own cultural engagement was modest, Byron takes immense pride in his children’s connection to their heritage, especially their fluency in the language. He hopes to be remembered as someone who stood firm in his beliefs and always tried to do right by his people. Byron sees his role in the community as evolving, and he’s committed to being a strong example for his children by continuing to grow and give back.
