Chalisa Attla

FOUNDER

A proud Koyukon Athabascan from Hughes and Holy Cross, I hold a 2015 Accounting degree with a Finance minor from the University of Alaska Fairbanks. In 2016, I completed Doyon Leadership Training/Inspire Leadership Academy, enhancing my leadership and community skills. For over 10 years, I’ve helped small businesses and Alaska Native Corporations with financial solutions. Outside work, I’m a boy mom, dog mom, and soon-to-be wife who enjoys summers riding, gardening, fishing, berry picking, and campfires, and winters spent traveling, following dog races, and supporting my child’s wrestling. My life blends culture, family, and Alaska’s outdoors.
