For the third installment of our Native American Heritage Month series, we welcomed Ron "Hawk" Spoerl, President and CEO of Aambé Corporation, to our Mesa studio. Aambé is a platinum sponsor of RES 2026, and is doing incredible work across Indian Country, particularly in health care where they are helping tribes tap into a multi-trillion-dollar industry that also provides vital services to their citizens.
Ron shares his own story, as well as Aambé's, which means "let's go" in Ojibwe. In addition to health care, Ron discusses Aambé's work in sports, including the upcoming Native American Heritage Month partnership with the NBA G-League's Wisconsin Herd. You can also learn more about Aambé and Ron in a Q&A available on The National Center's website. And of course, make sure to meet Ron and learn more at RES.
Before Ron joins the episode, hear about some of Yvette's new initiatives, including her appointment as a Board member of Western Spirit: Scottsdale's Museum of the West. Thanks for tuning in - and make sure to check back next week for the last installment of our Native American Heritage Month series!
