Marnie Archer is of Dutch, Scottish, English, and Irish settler decent. It is important to her to include the acknowledgement that she was born, raised and currently operates on the Treaty 4 Territories of the nehiyawak, Anihsinapek, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakota, and on the homeland of the Metis/Michif Nation.

Her educational experiences also include studying Fashion Design for three years at Toronto Metropolitan University and completing an exchange program in Textile Design at the University of Central England. Throughout recent years, Marnie has dedicated herself to her local arts and culture scene in Saskatchewan by volunteering as event and programming support, sitting on boards and committees, and owning and operating Traditions Hand Craft Gallery in Regina for over 5 years where she focused on relationships building with Saskatchewan Craft Council members and clientele.

Prior to returning to university, Marnie worked as a National Visual Merchandiser in Ontario for over fifteen years designing props, fixtures, window installations and working collaboratively to complete several new retail and office design projects. In her spare time, she enjoys hanging out with her adult daughter Maya, taking early morning walks with her unruly dog Tango, practicing yoga and meditation, and riding her fixed gear bike.
