I want to help build and support resilient communities, in all their amazing and rich diversity.
I've been working in the cultural sector my entire professional career. I started as a bookseller and have since been navigating Performing Arts, Film and Media for the past 12 years. I'm currently Switcher-Director for Radio-Canada and a voice actor. Past roles include:
- administrator for a contemporary dance company in France
- venue administrator at The Dance Centre
- production manager and assistant director for a documentary production company
- stage manager for dance
Until recently, I was feeling bad for not settling into one specialty or job. I thought my constant need for change was a sign of a fear of commitment or even a sign of frivolity. That was until I discovered Emily Wapnick. Emily has written and talked extensively about what she calls the multipotentialites. Listening to her and reading on this made me realize that I had many callings that could evolve and change over time.
