Biography
[edit]I am an artist, communicator, and queer francophone community activist from and living in N'Swakamok (Greater Sudbury). A graduate of École secondaire Macdonald-Cartier (2012), I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from Laurentian University, specialized in Theatre with a major in Political Science (2017).
My artistic practice is primarily focused on playwrighting, acting, and clowning (Pochinko Method). Professionally, I mainly work in communications (writing, translation, social media management, etc.), though I do dabble in project management in areas other than communications.
I currently serve as Greater Sudbury's eight Poet Laureate.[1]
Recognition of Potential Conflicts of Interest
[edit]I regularly speak publicly about a variety of issues in local media and I am active in the arts and culture scene, primarily in French. Until March 2024, I occasionally acted as a paid contributor on Wikipedia as an Agent de développement numérique et de découvrability territoriale for Avantage numérique working out of Place des Arts.
