EIN co-lead Shola Oduga embraces her Nigerian heritage and gives back to her community with passion and purpose.

With its maze of pipelines and storage facilities, the City of Cushing has earned the nickname, “The Pipeline Crossroads of the World.” It is a critical community in the energy industry that is home to many Native American Tribes – as well as a fall festival that brings together the pipeline community and the Tribes. Native Fest is an annual festival held in September that TC Energy has sponsored for several years. A highlight of the festival is an art show that showcases the work of community members such as Amber L. DuBoise-Shepherd.
