What I find at Exponentiel is a human-scale structure where strategic rigour meets bold creativity. Exponentiel amplifies what I can offer: access to complementary expertise, rare collective intelligence, and contagious energy that expands my impact. I enjoy fully immersing myself in projects, playing an integrated role, and contributing in tangible ways. Here, I can get to the heart of issues with precision, authenticity, and ambition—knowing that every mandate is supported by an exceptional team.

Creating real impact in the communities where I live is at the core of my commitment. I split my time between Montréal and Kamouraska : two places that shape my identity and reinforce my desire for local, concrete, and sustainable outcomes. I deeply believe in Québec’s differentiators: its talent, creativity, resilience, and ability to reinvent itself. My involvement in tennis, a sport I aim to make more accessible and visible, reflects the same desire to open doors, build, pass on knowledge, and give back. I bring this same philosophy to my professional mandates, whether working with organizations, leaders, or emerging talent.

My approach is grounded in distinctive hospitality, a sharp sense of strategic connectivity, and a natural ability to quickly mobilize the right people around a shared objective. I move forward with authenticity, credibility, and accountability. Proactive and creative, I enjoy challenging conventional thinking, proposing alternative options, unexpected angles, and solutions that generate greater value.
